I notice it two, but I has to say I doan give a dang.

This was my 4th or 5th Dayton, the last time being 2008. The thing that bothered me was that the arena was pretty hot inside. AC was not on. The flea market seemed larger to me than in '08. I'd like to know what the attendance was this year.

An anecdote:  A few years ago I attended with my brother, a non-ham. We parked in what was then on-site
parking. We went through the arena and some of the flea market. Returning to the car after about 2 1/2 hours, we found that it was locked and still running! Fortunately it was very quiet running and I don't think anyone noticed. 

They paid me. They're not penalizing me. Good choice. I don't know is they are penalizing Jerry or not.

Vindicated at last.

I agree about spelling, grammar etc.  Or lack thereof. I don't see Jerry's ridiculous posts anymore since I hit the 'ignore' button.  PayPal should render a decision in a week or so. Then we'll see.

What is going on? PayPal is giving me some crap about disputed funds.

If you  have paid me, via PayPal, I need to know it right away.

If you have changed your mind about the purchase, I understand, although messing with me or the
funds to PayPal is not the way to do it.

If you have changed your mind and are NOT paying me, then I expect the package sent back to me
at your expense immediately.

LET ME KNOW BY SATURDAY. (Sent at 1108PM, CST, 4/21/2011)

i havent done anything with them the only thing i know of is they have me at a negative of over a $1,000 and i am without any money

They know about it eh? Now you are fabricating things to cover your own stupidity.
You told me you called them on Sunday. Guess what Jerry? PayPal customer service/dispute section is NOT OPEN weekends. I won't entertain any more BS from you. You are now SPAM.

SEND ME BACK THE HT      OR SEND ME $35.OO IMMEDIATELY.
I have proved to everyones satisfaction that you did NOT pay me because you or your bank reversed the payment. Can you read Jerry?

Jerry, oh Jerry.  You'll find out soon enough. You don't believe my email from PayPal is real. Why don't you
actually CALL them today, just like I did. They will probably cancel your PayPal account.

I wouldn't be calling people names, or threatening them. Only true losers do that.

1543Z

Actually Jerry, I tried to call you the day you or your bank reversed the payment to my bank (which I had to repay to PayPal out of my account) and the only number I could get was your uncle's, and he told me that there was a problem with your phone. He also said you lived not far away on the same street.

So let's be fair, Jerry.  All your bluster about bringing charges against me and others on this site are total BS. If you want to waste your money and your time trying it, please go ahead.

Meanwhile, send me the HT or $35.oo.  A M.O. not PayPal. I don't think they'll keep your account after this.

I called PayPal just now and they confirmed that, despite Mr. Name Callers accusations, I have not been paid as is evidenced by the following email:

Hello John Tidball,

Thank you for contacting PayPal.

The transaction for case ID PP-001-285-716-713 is currently on hold, and
the funds are not currently in your available balance.  We thank you for
your patience while we are reviewing this case.  This type of issue can
take up to 30 days to complete.

We know situations like this can be difficult, so thanks for working
with us. If you have more questions, visit our Help Center by clicking
"Help" in the top right corner of any PayPal page.

Sincerely,
XXXXXX
PayPal Customer Solutions
PayPal, an eBay Company

So, Jerry, you can knock off the crap and let everyone know they are safe from your BS threats.

Good. Send it to me Jerry.

Actually, I thought about doing that. But age my advanced age of 66 I might have trouble doing it.
Too bad, he deserves it~! 

Jerry Buchanan himself reversed the PayPal money he'd sent to my bank account. Interesting to know he's ripped others off as well.
He sent me a email last night saying "your [sic] a f......n liar." I have sent PayPal (at their request) the receipt showing I mailed the HT to KD5UDE. With his sleazy reputation, I doubt if I'll ever get any satisfaction from the DIRTBAG, but then you never know. Maybe (ha ha) PayPay will do something, but I doubt it. Next I'll put his phone number on here so others can call him too.   

B E W A R E     KD5UDE!!!! I sold him an HT and he 'paid' me via PayPal, then reversed the payment after the
money was in my bank. He won't pay me or return the HT. He is a liar and a thief.
B E W A R E    KD5UDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If anyone else has been ripped off by Jerry Buchanan, KD5UDE please notify me by email.
