So, who is the lucky fellow who got the NOS Super Beacon Ray from Las Vegas??


I worked out a deal with the guy, transferred the money, and never heard back.


It was new...September 1966 date code, glass dome, original tags, and packing. It was SWEET!!!

I have more pics that were sent to me via text if anyone wants to see them.

So you never got it?

I think he means transferred from one of his accounts to another of his accounts..... I though he meant he paid and never got it at first......

Actually, I transferred the money to the seller's acct via my bank (he didn't have PayPal, and it was faster than mailing USPS MO). He never accepted the funds, and I never heard anything else. So, I am really out nothing more than an hour or two of negotiating, typing emails, and setting up the transfer. Either way, this was a great find and a huge letdown.


That's my second Craigslist seller-never-came-through situation in as many weeks. Fotunately, I am not out any money!

Glad someone who will appreciate it got it...even if it wasn't me. I can't wait to see pics.


p.s. still wish I would have gotten the light. It looked nice on CL!!!


p.s.s. today is my birthday, and I am accepting gifts. A 174 would be nice.
