Hi Dave, Hopefully not too far off topic, just wanted to chime in here.
I have known the people at RDR Electronics (I live in NY and am not affiliated with them) for over 15 years. I used to live in the Denver area and got to know the original owners. They used to buy industrial aerospace surplus cheap and turn it around quick. They are like us in that they like to tinker around with equipment (many times much more expensive than most of us could afford). They have respect for us time nuts ;). I have never known them to not stand by something they sold. They do sell direct outside of auctions - just look them up online in the Denver area. They are easy to talk to and nice people. If you are wondering how many items they may have, ask them. They are not trying to hide anything. They do need to turn a profit like any company. I am ready to spend $1000 + on an item soon and I would not flinch at giving it to them. They do answer their emails and will listen to you if you are looking for a special setup for a good price. They occasionally come across a one of a kind oddball item and would sell direct rather than post on an auction. My only concern I have ever heard was from outside the U.S. They have to turn stuff around fast and can't take on the risk of issues with international shipments from what I have heard. Sorry for what sounds like a commercial. I really have no current connection, but wanted to let you know what you could expect.
