Midland 1001Z 40-Channels Base CB Radio

It receives a signal and makes a great PA loud speaker! But it is a cheap radio and does a cheap job

dont buy it on ebay unless its under 28 bucks
check amazon for it because its real cheap.
also, it has an RF gain which is not advertised on any site about this radio. Great starter radio and it is so small it fits practically anywhere. I think the size is wrong on most sites.

While the Midland 1001Z is a great little CB, which I thought I was buying, I got hooked! What I got was a 23 channel Midland 13-882B which appearantly had not been used in about 20 years. The control knobs were seized with rust, totally inoperable! Despite my efforts this issue is still unresolved, I filed complaints with eBay and Paypal with no result. The item sold for $3.00, but with $17.00 shipping charge. The Seller says if I ship it back (another $17.00) she will refund the purchase price ($3.00).

Now I am not a mathmetician, but somehow paying $ 34.00 to collect a $3.00 refund just does not seem appropriate. My position is that it was false, misleading and deceptive posting that lead to the transaction. It is my position that a refund of the purchase price *AND* the $ 34.00 in shipping costs should be paid by this fraudulent Seller.

This issue has gone on for over a month now, and both eBay and PayPal aooear to be doing absolutely nothing to rectify the situation.

To make matters worse: the Seller has posted negative feedback stating she offered a refund, but only if I ship the item back to her.

Remember, no matter how good the feedback of a Seller is you can still get burned!!!
