I noticed the same thing I also asked for a ebay ID or storefront so i could
check his feedback and kept getting some excuse about ebays fee's. and not
wanting to take paypal for a Garmin 196 GPS and a Icom A23 NAV/COM. of
course both of those for $750 is suspicious to begin with. and another funny
thing is the one guy that claims he ordered and it was deliverd has the same
name and the one on the address to send the M.O. to.

I contacted this guy and tried to work out a deal. After agreeing to part
with two headsets for more than 50% off, he refused to use PayPal or any
online escrow service (on my dime), insisting on a check (which would need
to clear before shipping) or money order. His email display name is "Joe
Turner" for some although he signs his messages as "George". Needless to
say, he's not getting my money.

GeorgeF,
Based on your 'feedback' regarding purchase from the other George.
I wrote an inquiry to George (rcpilotgeorge) and got a reply asking me

to
send money order/check to George Fetter in Daytonna Beach, FL. I went

to
your website (MilAircomms), clicked on several links and found the
contact address

http://www.licensed4fun.com/contactus.htm


So what you're saying is that and rcpilotgeorge
are the same person? And therefore that this person is perpetrating a
fraud by pretending to be a satified customer when he's really the

seller?
Despicable.

With so many "textbook cases" of single points of failure, you'd think
that we'd stop building systems to demonstrate the concept.
