Subject: [TekScopes] a 2465 mentioned on here last week ...






Hi all

Somebody mentioned on here a 2465 listed on ebay a week ago that appeared
to be at least partially functional.

I scored it and it just arrived, courtesy of Feeble Excuse shipping.

I would urge all group members to NEVER BUY anything from that seller. It
arrived single-boxed with a rather large hole punched in the side of the
box -- on the front side of the scope.

I am sick to see this, and I won't unpack it until tomorrow. There does
not appear to be any cosmetic damage on it, but I am more concerned about
functionality. I may be able to get some knobs from a parts 2445 my
brother has in Huntsville AL, if it's just knobs.

I've already emailed the seller and suggested that he get a different job,
namely working on the back of a garbage truck. I hope that will infuriate
him enough to respond to subsequent inquiries from me, and from ebay if
this unit is less functional than described in the listing.

I guess I should have known better than to bid on it, based on the
atrocious other crap he was offering. But ... an apparently functional
2465 for under $200 delivered? Gotta take a gamble now and then. Let's
see if ebay and Fedex back me up on this.

I still might get lucky ... but this piece was about a benjamin higher than
my usual comfort level for "may be working" test gear.

73 to all
