KG4HRK; deal collapsed, too risky

Post by pa3duv »

KG4HRK would not accept a wire transfer to his bank account but only a Money Order on a post box address and did not send me the requested picture of the unit and the serial number of the product.

Also a copy of the new unit (advertised still approx 4 months warranty on it) could not be submitted by the gentleman.

These signs were enough for me to conclude that I was entering the high risk zone, so I cancelled the deal.
