Default NEWBIES ! read this before buying from radio-mart !

well, some one paid $340 for this poor example of the satellit 3400 while a
few days ago, an excellent example went for LESS !!!!! I am in constant
amazement at what junk people will buy from radio-mart at collector prices !

this is the one that was desirable:

if you are new and wanting to buy a radio, beware of the lies of
radio-mart !
examine this auction:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=250024846207

I saw him buy this radio about 2 months ago. I didn't bid because it has a
serious problem.

lets look at his lies:

"This receiver is a two very careful owner's from new set and is perfect
in every way, it could so easily be sold as brand new."

and

"The only small thing I have to mention is the two glasses are clouded
with dust, they can be easily cleansed to be perfect but I do not have the
time to do that so its as per the pictures, its only dust."



the two glasses in question are fogged. they are not dusty, THEY CAN NOT
BE CLEANED. this radio is in no way like new or collectable as he says !



then he says:

"have been using the set myself for several months now, it replaced a
Satellit 800 I had and I have to honestly say that it is so much better
than the 800 especially the qudio quality, I didnt think there would be so
much difference but now I know."



well, he hasn't owned it several months and it is nowhere near the
satellit 800 in performance ! I can attest to this.



so before you buy your first radio consider you might be basing your
decision on radio-mart lies.
