I remember when (many moons ago) you would attend a swap-meet and be pretty assured that the items you bought was as stated by reputable seller's who were, mostly, original owners. Over time, with th

Perhaps, just perhaps it has a lot to do in the time we're in. In 1975 I had one radio. A brand new triton 4. Took every penny I had to get it. Used a car battery and breaker as I didn't have the mon

A lot of folks selling gear at hamfests these days may not have a lot of technical knowledge, so you may (or may not) be getting a bargain. As always caveat emptor (buyer beware). Ron K3MIY -- This m

At the risk of trashing my already shady reputation, I will say that most hams today cannot even judge if their radio (or scope) is working properly or not. So they may sell it to you in good faith a

Great replies to the original post. We bash eBay for high prices. We bash hamfests for shady sellers. We can't afford "new". ... then why bother. Just do without? I just sold three nice scopes (HP-46

How about honesty, integrity and professionalism? All of those words are lost in some circles. Why offer $400 for a $1250 piece of equipment to a woman whose husband was alive two months earlier? Hea

When I sell a radio, I stand behind it. I don't want to lose a friendship over a bad radio.  Yes, I have bought a bad radio or two, once I opened the radio and a hole was burned through the PC board,

Dear James Standing behind the gear is key. I won't buy something unless I feel this will be the case. On the other hand, I've yet to sell anything (my wife wants to remedy this) but I will stand beh
