Subject: frequency counter with Nixie-type display
From: Leonard Martin Date: 1/8/2005 2:28 AM Eastern Standard Time Anyone would think that, from what you originally posted. You're obviously an articulate person. Why didn't you give a few more details initially? I'll never understand this terse posting/listing by people who want to sell things to complete strangers. On eBay it's especially irritating. It's like the seller thinks he's talking to his best friend: "Hey bro. Find a nice counter for ya. Goes to 200 Mhz. How about 50 bucks?" Out here in the world of strangers we need a bit more detail. Leonard Leonard, you make a good point, but the item for sale was extremely cheap by any standard--worst case, the manual could be resold for $25 or $30. It just didn't occur to me to supply the amount of detail that I would if I were selling a $250 or $500 piece of gear. BTW, I did sell the counter for my asking price, and the buyer is very happy--as he should be, in my opinion, but I agree that that has nothing to do with your argument. FWIW, when you objected publicly to the skimpy description, I responded publicly with the back story. I hope that counts for something. Avery W3AVE |
