I have bought my nos cords form this seller for as long as I've been collecting. He never screws up and they come fast. I'm sure some other phone people buy from him. With 7 dollars for line and 11 dollars for handset you cannot go wrong! Is this a collector selling this inventory??

i stumbled upon this ebay seller when i was looking for a phone part. this a seller that i highly recomend.they are fast, reliable and they are very friendly. they are on my saved seller list.

Me too, I emailed him and he said his supply is limited to the pictures and he most likely wont restalk which is sort of a let down.

Well I assume that taylorrae found a hoard of NOS cords and has been selling them on ebay thus when this batch is gone, they are gone. I wouldn't imagine that these cords are being made anymore other than the flat cord version with spade tipshat are available in a couple of basic colors.

Also, Adirondak may still make them. In any case, Adirondak will make cords to your specifications. I've been thinking of having them make some H3AR style for 302s.

hi westernelectricben,i have been with ebay less then a year and i have learned that sometimes it is hit and miss with some items. also i have a list of saved sellers that if you want me to i can list them for you,heck you might have done business with some of them yourself.

Maybe so. I've been collecting for a little less than 3 yrs and already am in the 70-80's amount of phones.

Another update: He is still a good seller, but does not seem to care about repete  customers. You'd think that you would give a nice word to someone that has bought many different items from.

That's okay, I'm sure I can find different vendors.

Some do, some don't, if it's months apart, then they may not remember your name from the last item you bought, so I wouldn't take it personally if I were you... :)

Heck, I've bought thing from the same seller many times and never got so much as a "Thanks again for your custom" message, but so long as I safely get what I paid for, that's all that matters... :)

You guys are right, I'm not mad. He does have 4000 some feedback so that makes sence.

But, to someone who I have extanged a few emails with and thanked him.. It's a bit...

Don't stay away from him, he is still a good ebayer though!
