OK here's the deal with Martyn, Luke or whatever you want to call him....
Study his "radio-mart" auction bid histories and it becomes obvious that he was using several eBay ID's to buy gear from other sellers and to shill bid on his own "radio-mart" auctions. The buying ID's he used have low feedback numbers and all of the feedback for each ID is from sellers. Also, the buying ID's give "United States" as the ID's location. Pretty generic location, huh? All it takes is some cross-referencing of auctions of radio-mart and the buying ID's and you will see the exact same gear; Drake, Collins, etc... Some say that the mostly postive feedback makes him OK, but if he is doing all those other deceptive things he is bad news in my book... I would certainly want to know what current ID he is using so I don't accidently bid on one of his auctions. Mark W4UDX "John" wrote in message ...

Actually, it's north of Lexington, very near Georgetown, KY where Toyota has a huge assembly plant. I met Martyn a couple of years ago, bought an Icom R-75 from him and picked it up at the Georgetown exit on I-75. He seemed to be a very plesant person. Nick WB4SQI |

Nick,
I also met Martyn a couple of years ago. I drove to is home, just south of Louisville (Sadieville), to pick up some equipment that I purchased from him. You are correct he was a very nice guy to me and frankly I enjoyed our visit. When I got home and fired up the equipment and found out that he had lied through his teeth to me, smilin' all the way, and that it was going to cost me an outrageous amount to fix the problem, I still thought "well he's a nice guy and will probably take care of it or return my money". Nope, the SOB turned nasty (unreasonably nasty), even though I wasn't nasty to him, and told me that I should take a hike and not bother him anymore. He was totally unreasonable and I was totally stuck. I fixed it. I still remember the gear fondly and enjoyed it. I will never forget him, his outright lies, and his nastiness. I will also not forget how I should have had a clue as he prided himself in showing me, during my visit, how he could hide flaws in the way he took pictures and that how flowery descriptions and lots of pictures could get him big $$$ for anything he chose to sell on Ebay. Education can be expensive. Lesson learned. "Nick Marsh" wrote in message ... DeWayne wrote: I asked him where he was located and he said just south of Louisville.
