I would like everyone who has been following the e-bay insanity string to read the response I received from D... (Suppressed At His Request). He states, and goes on to prove, that he is indeed a serious collector of Elec-Trak tractors and literature. He also collects other items. I tried to post this reply in it's entirety earlier but was sent a message that the post exceeded the post size limitations. So, I will post it as four pages. I did reduce the font size from the original so as to hopefully make each page under the size limitation. I am also deleting any reference to his name and address from the letter.
Knowing now that this gentleman is a true collector and not trying to corner the market as I said, I would like to appoligize to this board for the comments that I made in my original post. I will now hurry to post his letter as I have a lot of crow pie to eat aith a side of humiliation for desert.
This board is, and will continue to be, the best place for information and source of parts for the Elec-Trak tractors.
Sincerely,
Ron in Michigan
