Looks like we've got a fraudulent seller of goods going here.  Everyone
best beware.  I've had a phone call from one persone who sent 100.00 for
a disk drive and hasn't heard back.  Another person tried to buy some memory
and ole Vincent wanted the money order quick.  This was my first attempt at
buying on the net.  Not too successful I'd say.  Now I'm out my money and
still need 2 - 4meg Simms.  Anyone help?  

John (Ouch I've been Burned) Seitzler

Will pay for COD and overnight shipping for good price on memory...

	Must work in a SUN 3/160C workstation.
	Must work with SUNOS 4.1.1 without kernel modifications.
	Must support SCSI-2 commands.

	If you have such an item and are willing to sell it, please

reposting after the initial deal fell through:

I'm selling a practically-new WangDAT 2000 4mm DAT drive, with a 19" rackmount
enclosure capable of holding this and more SCSI peripherals.  The drive has been
used for (maybe) 10 tapes -- my application for the beast fell through and now
I no longer need it.  Several (3-4) 90M tapes are included in the deal.

It's a good drive.  It's DDS capable, holding a max of 2GB per 90M tape in
this mode.  It also supports WangDAT's "group compression" mode, and will
store up to 5GB using this method.

Asking $1200 (negotiable).

ESDI - AT/ISA Hard Disk controller: $150

Adaptec ACB2322B AT/ISA to ESDI disk controller with floppy controller.
Read-ahead track cache for high performance on brain-dead DOS systems.
Works fine with 10MHz ISA bus timings and offers optional wait-state
generation (to support machines with out-of-spec. I/O timings).
Supports geometry re-mapping for drives with more than 1024 cylinders
can be used even by poor old DOS (UNIX doesn't need that nonsense).
Compatible with all major UNIX versions (both SysVr3 and SysVr4).
Full original documentation included, along with SpeedStor Hard Disk
formatting software.  Drive cables are available if desired.

SpeedStor supports this ESDI controller and provides very thorough disk
surface analysis.  You can re-format selected portions of your drive
(in case you sustain a head crash or something).  The partitioning
software has very flexible DOS support as well.

Local people (North East Massachusetts) may have installation help.

Interested parties are invited to respond by e-mail or phone.

Hi victims,

After I posted the original post "Vincent Poy please reply". I got a
great deal of response. Here are some of them:

******************-----------
From broadley@neurocog.lrdc.pitt.edu  Thu Nov  5 16:36:51 1992

I have been trying to buy ram from him for awhile he hasn't responded
lately.

*****************------------
From glenn@hpsanaeo.nsr.hp.com  Thu Nov  5 10:01:15 1992

I have been ripped off by Vincent (or so it seems).

He offered to trade a 486 Motherboard for my 95LX palmtop.  Since
he has received my palmtop, and I have not gotten the board, I believe
that he has dupped me.  

I will make a posting to the net warning everyone later this afternoon.

My guess is that if we warn folks, and perhaps flood his email, he may
go away or behave like a small business man and honor his commitments.

At this point, I suggest that you not engage in any transactions with
this guy!

****************---------------
From kc2x+@andrew.cmu.edu  Thu Nov  5 16:50:21 1992

I would suggest you not dealing with him.  I order a Sportster modem
from him for $290.  I know that he got my Money Order last Saturday
because I use certified mail.  I have not receive the modem since.  He
said the FeDExpress shipping is included.   I emailed him several time
and I got no response.


*****************-------------------
From suvac@susan.cs.andrews.edu  Thu Nov  5 11:42:28 1992

I have the same problem. I bought a hard disk from Vincent Poy, sent
him $100 deposit, but have not heard from him ever since. I tried to
contact him last Friday, then Monday but with no success! Do you
know if this guy is for real? Please, let me know if you have had
any business experience with Vincent Poy. 


*****************----------------------
From t06@clark.edu  Thu Nov  5 12:27:25 1992

It seems he has dropped off the face of the earth.  I was in the process
of buying a hard drive and he just stopped replying.  His e-mail address
is vpoy@terapin.com.  If that doesn't reach him try
terapin!vpoy@netcom.com.  If he gets in contact with you, please let me
know.

	So folks, what are we going to do?

I bought this for a network that never came to be.  It's a Western
Digital WD8003E, probably the most standard card on the market.

I bought it because it is specifically supported by Mach386 and most
386 Unix systems.

All original software, manuals, and packaging are intact.

I'll guarantee it works.
I'm asking $80, but the best offer gets it.

I'm sorry I didn't make some things clearer in a prior posting...

For sale:

package 1, asking $620:
    * Bernoulli 90 Transportable Pro (well regarded, removable media,
      transportable drive with SCSI connectors)
    * 1 freebie 90 Meg cartridge that came with the drive (Iomega loaded this
      with shareware)
    * manuals & receipt
    * an open architecture driver package that Iomega sent me

    (I paid $713 for the drive - $689 + $24 s&h).

package 2, asking $340:
    * 3 x 90 Meg cartridges (still in shrink wrap)


I would like to sell them both together. Both drive and cartridges are
<<new and unused>> and I'm thinking of getting a fixed drive if I can sell this.
