A "giant scale, 90% complete, meant to fly on a gas turbine motor (?), being offered by someone with a negative 2 rating, 0% positive feedback, who will only accept money orders or checks".

Did you read his negative comments? As a seller, selling a gun rack for .99 and $16 shipping. Wonder if the buyer thought he was getting the gun too? And I couldn't decipher the negative comment as a buyer. :confused:

If you have noticed, he is starting this out for 99 cents, because right now until today ebay has a discount of posting fees, if you list an item for 99 cents, your listing fee is only 1 cent.

He is also throwing in the shipping for free, but, he also has a reserve, and, the only way you will know the actual starting price is to bid it up until the reserve is met.

So, if your willing to spend a few hundred dollars, one will never know.

When they were giving out brains, he thought they said a ride on the train and said no thank you!!!!!!

I want to see him trying to answer questions about it... That'd be entertaining.

I asked him why a rocket would be designed to use a gas turbine engine but haven't seen a reply yet.

I sent that Bozo a nice smart-alecky email through ebay asking him if he even knew what a Gas Turbine is, and if he does why would he think anyone would use one to propel a rocket, which by definition must be propelled by a ROCKET MOTOR !

If it was to use a gas turbine wouldnt it need a intake ram air?

Anyhow..some clod will buy it......and 2 seconds after un packing it will feel that sad,depressing feeling.....followed by a smack to the guys already minty fresh feedback ,and then a quick re-listing to offload it to another idiot.

Its rocket fruitcake.....re-gift it.

I asked him how he planned of selling this if his only feedback was both negative.

As I mentioned previously, ebay was having a posting sale of 99 cents until today. Also, if you noticed, it has a reserve, so, unless you bid it up to what he wants, NO SALE. And, don't forget the free shipping.

I just checked it out, he has four bids?????????????????
