Re: [drakelist] UPay or ebay help
Howard, If you will click on his user name and then click all feedback you will notice he has a total sales of 10287 with 149 negative. He is known to display some different pictures than the real thing. I have purchased an AC-4 from him and it was ok. As long as the transformer is OK, you will probably want to upgrade it anyway. That other AC-4 at buy it now for $160.00 is too high in my judgement. Hope this helps.

Re: [drakelist] UPay or ebay help
KBG Luxford [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Howard, I think that you will find that where a buyer makes multiple purchases from the same seller, only one feedback from that buyer gets counted in the total feedback score. So a buyer may have had 8000 sales from customers who gave positive feedback, but if some customers made multiple purchases so that there were only 5000 individual customers then, assuming no negative or neutral feedback, the maximum score would be 5000. 73 Kevin VK3DAP / ZL2DAP Howard Traxler wrote: Howard Traxler [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Could someone out there please give me a hand understanding this thing?

Re: [drakelist] UPay or ebay help
john [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Hi Kevin and Howard, Yes, you're right Kevin, about the multiple purchases from the same buyer and its effect on Ebay feedback. Howard, I think you'll find that most folks on this list (like in any population) enjoy Ebay, although like any form of sales, it has its plusses and minuses!

Re: [drakelist] UPay or ebay help
David Chris Drake [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Howard, you should plan on rebuilding the AC4 with the kit available from the Heathkit shop, at a minimum. A better bet would be to look at the various ham only websites for one. Also, maybe someone on here has a spare to part with. One last place, on Tuesday PM? (I forget the time and freq, since I'm not in the shack) there is a boatanchor net where hams offer items for sale. I'm sure one of the other guys has the time and freq. handy.

Re: [drakelist] UPay or ebay help
Dennis Monticelli [EMAIL PROTECTED] made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- The key to understanding eBay feedback and how that may impact you is to zero in on the negative feedback messages, which you can easily track down by choosing 200 views per page and reading the red items. If you read the negatives on his seller, some things just jump out at you. He overstates condition. This creates most of the disputes. He has poor confliction resolutions skills, which exacerbates the situation. He invariably retaliates agains the buyer via his badmouthing and giving them negative feedback in returnl. I want nothing to do with a seller like that.
