[time-nuts] HP 5061A on Ebay

[Normand Martel]

On the eBay listing it is written:

>Because of the nature of this item (or the quantity
>we have in stock) we have made the decision not to
>individually test each item.

Well... I could understand on Beta VCR's, but TO NOT
TEST a HP5061 Cesium beam frequency standard for
functionality, (a known good standard will sell for
MUCH MORE $$$$$) George is right, we shall have BIG
questions about the seller's reputation!!!!
