Stiffed on Ebay

I like to touch and feel and pre-use the items I
purchase. This takes people like me out of the Ebay equation.
I'm not inferring in any way that it's a bad way to buy something; just
that for me, it wouldn't be my choice at all.

Oh I see what you mean,,, no, ebay doesn't allow for a 'hands-on' sale,,, I
think my dad would feel the same way, could never even get him to order via
mail order catalog... He'd want to be able to pick-up and look at a given
thing....

Yeah.......us "older types" like the feeling of dealing with an
established source when buying the expensive stuff! We like that ole'
"human factor" at the other end if things don't work out quite as
advertised. Actually, I might even be an exception to this, as during my
tenure in aviation, when I bought something, it was usually VERY
expensive, and the company usually sent a representative to me instead
of the other way around :-)
