No guts

The first seller said it had no innards other than the CRT, this seller just says it is non-working so someone may wind up unhappy.

What a sham. I'm sure the buyer will refuse to pay.

Well all I know is Kenora is a small town located about an hours drive from downtown Ottawa, Ontario. Ottawa is the capital of Canada for those of you who don't know. According to the earlier auction this set was made in Kenora but if you ever saw the size of this town ( even today nevermind in the 30's) I can't see how. Kenora is the town where the Ottawa Senators( of the NHL) home rink is located.

The high bidder asked the seller for some pictures. The seller launched into a tirade about how the bidder had "ruined the deal", and demanded a payment of $50 and threatened legal action.

I think the seller is a nut case.

"I think the seller is a nut case"


Steve,

I think you hit the nail on the head.

Anyone looked at his web page? www.bjstv.com

Not sure what they actually sell or do.

Chuck

They sell poor quality videotapes of public domain film material. Take a look at his Ebay feedback.
