Im in process of buying a MC-2102 off Audiogon, from a physician

Notice the picture pict0048 AND the pic of box showing the serial number (pict0053)

Its a done deal & he has my check. Hes going to be sending it out shortly.

Ok, on to Scam Part II

Now, the long story short Look at his pics and notice TWO of them are identical to Audiogon listing. Ive made up a new screen name (evidently its hidden). I put a $14,000 bid on this puppy. Im just WAITING for him to scream that Ive scammed him. I will then be able to produce the VERY box & serial number HE purports to hold. I wonder how his story will change then.

Scam part III

This was put together on AudioKarma and this is the thread. Im Coytee there as well as here. The REAL seller is Skip. The first of the two guys did the I cant believe it is true listing about ebay & the second person found the REAL one that I in fact purchased.

The saga should end tomorrow. Enjoy the reading

Thank you! [6]

With that said, ebay killed the listing last night around midnight or so I guess. I got notification of it today in my email. The subject title was "TKO" something or another. I got a kick out of that.

I was wondering though, what the dolt was thinking when I was so excited about flying there. Of course, I was completley lying about working for the airlines. I figure turnabout is fair play.

Fortunately for me, the real seller is going to try to ship the real amp to me either today or more likely, next week.

Then I got the MC-30's on the way from someone else. My wife is going to skin me with the 2102, MC-30's, OTL's & dbx amps laying around.

I DO think though, that within this mix, I'll keep at minimum, the McIntosh amps and perhaps the OTL's. The dbx will be sold back to the original seller if he wants it. If he passes, it will go to ebay or Charles! [;)]
