content: Sounds to me like someone has found a bit of "pickup only" TE in Berlin - and they're not in Berlin.

content: Well, as it seem that nobody can help, as least please offer a good house to this 2467, it even has the "word probe" as well as some other goodies in the pouch and a manual.I always wanted a this strange animal, but were costing too much, I've talked to the lady and they accept 150 but I don't pay friends and family principally and I'm too far away. I also strongly advise to not do it, go there, pay cash.The scope powers on, has a crisp display and both traces, the seller send me some extra pictures.At least maybe I get a "Thank you" and the scope remains in the eevblog community (post pictures please):https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/tektronix-2467-oscilloscope/1066311118-168-3547Cheers,DC1MC

content: It seems that the scope it's still rottening in Berlin and I didn't mention it in the original post: I will, of course, make your time and effort worth, so again:If there's someone in Berlin who can help by picking and shipping the scope in Mannheim, please let me know.Thanks,DC1MC

content: Quote from: DC1MC on March 24, 2019, 06:52:53 amIt got a laugh.I know the feeling, though. Most of us in Australia do. When you have a country that is roughly the same size as the contiguous USA, and the sparse distribution across it, logistics can very quickly become costly..... and that's not counting the droolworthy stuff we see in the USA.

So I/they can be sure that this is not some kind of tomfoolery.If there is a kindhearted "Berliner", then this is it, if not, then somebody else that dares to pay with "Friends and Family" should have it.Cheers,DC1MC

content: Because the price decreased on 100, cannot (as contingency plan) you use the difference to arrange some pickup service + packing service + shipping ?

content: Quote from: chekhov on April 02, 2019, 07:55:12 pmThere is no such unicorn in Germany (that I know off). There could be some delivery service that may work door to door, but nobody does packaging as well AFAIK. The people are too litigious and used with small prices, so nobody will pay for it and the liability is too big.I also wanted somebody that could have a cursory look to see if it's really a scope or a pair of old shoes, I've offered 50EUR * shipping costs but nobody cared, well c'est la vie. But I do hope that the poor scope, if exists, will get a good home.Cheers,DC1MC
