Well...
He can't test it because the power switch is broken. Probably doesn't want to fidget with it.
There's one guy I've seen on there alot and he also has a ebay store and the name of his store is xxx CB Shop. Certainly implying that he is running an actual CB shop yet he too posts all kinds of radios as tech specials and "doesn't know anything about them" etc....and that kind of crap. Makes ya wonder

I love the guys who will post an ad, show the radio on a bench with an O-scope, a spectrum analyzer, freq counter, and other test gear in the back ground, AND claim to not know much about the radio! :thumbdown:
Just covering their ass so they do not have to return your money....or dishonest buyers trying to get something for nothing.
You know that doesn't seem to matter anymore. I think ebay changed policy again and even items listed as For Parts or Not Working are tagged with "covered by ebay buyer protection."
So maybe you can force a return of any non working junk now.
I like the dudes that post a popular style of radio and sell it as is, or untested and sold for parts, but they'll put a big BIN or a high reserve price.
They warn you it may not work, but yet, place a "working" price on it.
TOOLS!
So ... what is the Problem ??? If you're trying to sell something, you want to get the most $$$ for it, without misrepresenting what it is. As a buyer, you need to read between the lines and determine what it REALLY is and what it's worth to you. It's just a game of give and take, and if you can't play the game ... well that's your problem.
