AND he is not the only one. there are others on ebay

We ordered last year a GEV234 USB cable by ebay and nick sends a GEV162 cable.
We sent it back and got a GEV161 cable. Incompetent. Dirk

Oh he is definitely a con man. look at his other listings

This guy's ad looks legit. Everything about it looks legit. BUT, he is NOT selling JAVADS. He is selling Pentax GPS. And other stuff.

He has no JAVADS.

So, it's bait and switch.

I sent him this just a bit ago.

Dear iseisurvey,

You have some choices. Sell me one at that price. (I'll be picking it up in
person) with real money. Or, take your bait and switch ad down.
Nate

There're usually two sides to everything. So you're PO'ed because you can't get what you wanted. Ok, you reported it to ebay, you're not out any money. He said he was sorry. What more do you want?

Big dog got a bone, don't want to give it up. Grrrr.

Remember an old saying from earlier days. 'Bears make money, bulls make money and little piggy's ... go to slaughter.'

Don't be a little piggy.

Caveat Emptor and Yippy Kai Yay. TGIF.

One thing to think about. How much would you have billed already if you had just bought the equipment from a dealer that provided support instead of wasting your time chasing, emailed, complaining, etc? Pretty sure it would have already more than paid for the difference by being able to put it to work right away. If not you aren't charging enough....
