Would you really buy from Dan NOW...??
Let's see...one transaction doesn't go his way, and he launches into a
paranoid tirade, threatening every potential seller on these groups as retribution. Now - imagine you're the buyer, and something goes amiss with YOUR transaction. Think about it. There's plenty of other equipment to buy on eBay. 'Nuff said. |

Nothing like adding fuel to the fire. Do you ALWAYS kick someone when they are down? My reputation speaks for itself. Many, many folks have done business with me and were more then satisfied, here and on eBay. I'm the "bad guy of the day" right now because I chose to rant about the hypocrisy and silly pettiness that occurs here on the newsgroups. Why do you think I went to eBay, as do most other radio hobbyists to sell their equipment? Think about it. And do you ALWAYS end with "Nuff said? |
I would buy from him. He is very angry and just venting. I get that way sometimes also. Mike Burch K8MB |
I would not buy from him, and after reading all his rants, threats, and
other BS, I'm glad they pulled his listing. He must have thought he had some sucker hooked on his line at the price he was going to get, then Ebay cut the line and the fish got away. This is why he's so mad, muhahahahaha Jeff wrote in message ...

Venting? Yes. ****ed off? Big time. I was only looking to get a reasonable price for the unit, and my Buy It Now was BELOW what they sell for new, and this is a brand new unit. As I said once before, it's not my fault if it bid past that amount. That's the nature of EbAY. Maybe something like this will happen to you some day. Dan |
Dan has been selling here for years. I have purchased from him with no
problem. The radio I bought from his was absolutely like brand new and the price was very good. Every time he posts an ad I make sure to check it out. Besides, I don't like Ebay either.

yes,. ebay does suck every now and then and their fee's keep going up, BUT
there is no other place on the planet that can get you top dollar for your item. In fact, many times more than that item is worth. BUT, who is to say what an item is worth to someone??

The responses he launched made me just drop him in the bozo bin and clear the entire thread. There is no way I would send money to someone like this. He "may" be "legitimate, but I wonder if he has any idea what an idiot he is making himself look like? shrug -- Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view. |

Yep, Fellows like those above would do all of that and more if they could. Full of anger and judgement against someone who never did anything to them. Don't buy anything from me, please. It'll go back on eBay soon, and probably fetch a very good price. More then it would from the cheap, whiny, no-life morons who inhabit these radio groups. Dan |
A lot of us are on your side. If Dan could get 10 or 15% more than he
was asking whats the problem with that? That just the free enterprise system in action. If you want it bad enough you pay.

Marketing is evidently not your strong suit. THAT was obvious when he posted the FA ad AGAIN, with less than a day left on the scanner, and it was ALREADY going for more than a NEW scanner! He's a greedy asshole, and extremely childish, and clearly MOST unwilling to change. Hey BUDSTER... If you're gonna call me a name, at least do it to me directly, instead of "Behind my back", like you are here. You see, I called you an asshole directly, to you face, because let's face it, you are one. You STILL have that bug up your arse about that original FA post and the auction where according to YOU, the radio fetched more then YOU thought it would fetch. You're looking more and more like the scumbag you dimed me out. You just can't let it go , can you? No life is it? Because other bidders were willing to pay more then even I ever thought it would bring, that makes me greedy? I posted the second, one day left FA ad not knowing it was that high, and even so, as I said once before, what does one do in that case? Stop the auctio because it bid too high according to NEVER ANONYMOUS BUD? Should eBay have a mechanism in their auctions limiting how high an item should go, because maybe someone would be paying too much? I don't think so. It's an AUCTION, asshole. By the way, I re-listed the item on eBay yesterday and it sold VERY WELL , in one day using Buy It Now. There's my poor marketing skills at work again... And yea, believe it or not, someone DID nuy from me. Apparently, not many people read these newsgroups after all. Dan |
THAT was obvious when he posted the FA ad AGAIN, with less than a day left on the scanner, and it was ALREADY going for more than a NEW scanner! He's a greedy asshole, and extremely childish, and clearly MOST unwilling to change. BTW, a few posts ago you mentioned that you had to remain anonymous because you were "Cyber-stalked" in the past. Horse**** if I ever heard it. But, assuming you were, now I know why. Ever wonder why yourself? Dan |

Hey dip****! It's EBAY!! The seller doesn't decide how high the auction goes! DUH! I never SAID he did. But he DID continue advertising it AFTER it was already TOO high. That IS 'greedy', but obviously YOU don't have the intelligence to understand that. See, typical BUDSTER bull****. This guy doesn't agree with the almighty BUD, so you now demean HIM / HER as well! Oh you are SO true to form and predictable. I'll say it one more time since you are either too dumb to understand, or only undertsand what YOU want to understand.... But he DID continue advertising it AFTER it was already TOO high. I "advertised" (another FA post) not knowing it was "too high". And who are you or anyone else to determine if an item is "too high"??? I can accept criticism for making excessive FA posts on the groups. But for you to be the arbitor of eBay pricing YOU deem to be too high speaks volumes about you... Dan |
Are you the price police? What is "too high"? I've seen plenty of radio
equipment sold daily for prices I feel are "high"... but Ebay (or any other auction) lets the market decide. Dan's just advertising. Nothing to do with greed...or intelligence, just common sense.

Uh, OK...
Seriously Bud (all bull**** aside) what do you think is a fair price for Dan's auction? Yes, I really do want your opinion. "Never anonymous Bud" wrote in message ...

On Ebay the rule of price is, whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Everyone has seen outrageous prices being bid on items......... i.e. a new in the box Sony 2010 going for 700-800$. Like it or not it happens. "Value" is in the hands of the people doing the bidding and no one else. Ebay is not a retail store where item X sells for price Y. Jeff |

It would be bad enough if Dan got stalked because of you, but maybe you just set up the wrong person, then you can feel twice as bad! I disagree with your thinking. NOT that "I" am a part of this, but DAN "does" leave his call sign in his signature at times. Your doubt of his address being wrong on QRZ is pretty much null and void - unless of course, he lied to the FCC when filing for a license OR QRZ made a typo. So, "IF" someone were to want to stalk anyone who handily leaves their call sign, it wouldn't take much to get an "actual" address. No big secret there! AND if the QRZ web site is down, easy enough, go to the FCC web site. One way or another, you can be found. Finding "Dan" is hardly an issue. The only mistake which is open to make, is if he had someone answer his door for him and the door knocker mistook him for Dan. IF Dan were to have moved, it is "his" legal responsibility to inform the FCC of his new address, which if done, would be put on line via their data base. It is pretty unlikely - if he followed the rules, that he could run and hide - when leaving his call sign floating out there. cl |
I've attempted to heed the advice of radio hobbyist, newsgroup lurkers
who've e-mailed me off group and advised, for many reasons to let this thread, and other related threads die. However, I could not leave these groups without acknowledging just how low, mean spirited, and sick some of the participants here are. You can go back 100 years, dig up as many old posts from me as you like. Since none of you abviously have lives, you have plenty of time for that. You can accuse me of spamming, taking advantage of new hobbyists, and any other myriad of crimes to society I've seen you idiots bring up about me in the last week or so. But in reality, the worst thing I've ever done on these newsgroups is post FS and FA listings for equipment to scanner or radio newsgroups, one of them being a swap group anyway. And, yes, I've crossposted as well, OK? Asked, answered, I admitted the infraction, and rest assured, you will see NO posts from me ever agin, let alone FS or FA. (That proclamation should make you all very happy, but then, who would you pick on, or BITCH about?) If I was as bad as you've all convinced yourselves I am, my eBay feebdack would be a horror show, and you would have dug up many newsgroups posts complaining about me. In reality, there are many Good Guy Alert postings, which I notice you newsgroup detectives conveniently left off your assault against me. I will quote from an e-mail sent by a trusted radio hobbyist with regard to these newsgroups... "Dan, why are you wasting your time with an area of the internet that has seen it's day, and is a wasteland for idiots, boobs, and morons. Troublemakers who always remain anonymous?" Truer words were never spoken. I've attempted to let this die, but mean spirited morons want to now publicly discuss ways to obtain my address. Wow. Your hatred runs deep boys and girls. I pity you. If any of you brave men or women, as a result of your inquiry into my address really want to meet with me face to face to discuss these matters, I have no problem with that at all. If not, can we let this die now? There are plenty of other folks spamming, cross posting, and selling items on your beloved groups as we speak. Go pick on them for a change. Dan |
