I believe it is customary for the buyer to pay first. So, if you want to do a bank transfer for £200, I'll get you the aerial.

It would help if you knew the basics then.

the point is, your talking sh!t.

you want a Sigma IV you know where you can buy one for around £150 brand new posted with no duty,
yet your still going on about you'd sooner buy a used one..

clearly got no money, or just another bullshitter CBer with a fornflake packet licence..

as for the Picture, that's the original mk1 Avanti base..
i have the same units, but sure my spreaders are nylon, i might be wrong but i can't bend them back straight with matter how much heat, how water and leaving bent in a vice does..

so why harping on about you'd sooner buy a second hand one than a brand new one..
not sure why you've even joined in on the post.!!

as for you've got one, as they say, pictures of it didn't happen :)

oh i have three buy the way, so..!! i'd still buy a brand new one for £150 over a used one for £200 any day, even i'm not that daft..

Nice to see every C'ber tagged with the same brush .......AGAIN :(
Plenty are talking worldwide on 27.555 usb,
Some are too far up their own @rse to admit it,
Many happen to know otherwise dx-ing test free,
Showing a complete lack of respect for the law.

I think you'll find that's tongue in cheek. He slags off Amateurs big time, despite having a licence and he has (apparently) a bigger CB collection than most.

come on lads, you really should have learn't by now to not take things as first read,
learn a bit of about the person first..

we know what i mean, just too many people like to make a thing of it..

if you think my comments are aimed at you, or you included yourself when i make comments then i pity you.
if i reply to YOUR post then the comments are aimed at YOU..

Bullshitting CBers, we all know them, there's plenty, those that sit on 19 bragging about what they have done, can do, have owned, have got, blah blah,
yet sit on 19 all day with a ten bob radio and bent aerial..

why did i mention foundation licences, because a lot of these that sit on 19 bragging about their radio skills, knowledge and where they talk to usually have an M3/6 and enjoy amateur radio so much they have to spend 23hrs a day telling every one on 19 about it..

yes i am an amateur, one of life's mistakes :)
and my Collection is wouldn't say is the biggest, not in CB's, CB related items i might have the biggest, but i'm not sure who has the biggest radio collection,
we think peter king, but no one has actually seen it, so maybe it's all bull, and looking at his feedback on ebay he doesn't buy as much as we all think..
i know there's collectors out there that have 300 plus radios, so more than me for sure i reckon..

Road_hog knows a lot of my comments are tongue in cheek, and you'll all surprise how many people off TM1 or via PM actually agree with my comments too..

any way not going to start the year off having to answer to my comments already, so i'll leave it at that, those that read my post's and follow what i say understand it's mostly tongue in cheek stuff..

back to the post :)

i've had a few words regards the Sigma IV's and the sellers are very slow in replying, unlike the Astroplane seller..
so if any one wants a Sigma IV you'll have to go direct to them (marco and Cor) as it may be to difficult with myself and our friend Henry to try and keep two separate orders running smoothly.
