Goody!  Another source of information.
Thanks.  It is a pleasure to read your
listings and your postings.

I can tell from your Ebay listings that
you are knowledgeable, from your postings
here that you are careful in packing,
from your feedback that you keep your customers
happy (not by calling them names when they
call to complain!), and from your presence and
postings here that you care about your reputation.

Since I would like to buy a single
decent sextant, one that I can
maintain and be satisfied with
for 20 to 30 years, I have to ask
myself if I really want to go
for the deep discount and run the
risk of "negative surprise".
I bet there is a greater than 50%
chance I would be happy with the sextant
from "that other guy", but I have to
ask myself if the risk of opening
the box to a total loss makes this
him a good bet.

You are correct in saying it is a tough
decision.  Take a risk on a better price,
or vote with my dollars... hmmm.
At the moment, I'm still just looking.

Renee
