That sucks.
About a month ago I was trying to trade a rough CTC-5 in one of my favorite cabinets and my restored CTC-5 for a nice example in one of my favorite cabinets...Some old collector goof contact s me thinking I'll sell my restored CTC-5 or trade it for something else. I told him it wasn't for sale and nothing he mentioned interested me.
About a week later he posts a Setchel Carlson roundy and some other sets for sale. I forgot who he was and messaged him that I would buy the Setchel Carlson from him....He replies to that trying to make that into a trade for the CTC-5...I go yeah that's probably the only set I would trade the CTC-5 for then 20 minutes later he messages me that he sold the Setchel Carlson out from under me AND had the audacity to think I would still trade him the CTC-5 for anything after he did that...
That kind of dirty pool or utter lack of mental faculty pretty much ends all bussiness with me.
I somehow since then got a line on another Setchel Carlson that I'm hoping to complete the deal on soon.
Those monochrome Zenith's are still rather plentiful (due to their long life) especially up here. I'm sure you'll end up with one eventually.
