Title: Hello from Arizona!
Post by: SwissTeknik on March 21, 2013, 07:09:11 AM
Hello,

My name is Chris. I work with a company that has been providing parts to airlines and end users for nearly 7 years. We recently did a tear down of an old United Airlines 737-300 and I began to market some of the as removed units on ebay and mycockpit.org, aimed at providing quality units to sim builders. Since it has been going well we have decided to stock certain parts for resale. I do most of the listing on ebay, but I'll begin to post things here that may be of interest to this community.  Looking forward to working with you!

Welcome aboard Chris.
We follow your listings on EBay as we do for most established vendors and we certainly will appreciate you posting here also.
Keep in mind that real parts, especially avionics,  are sometimes very difficult to interface and are bought only if priced competitively vs functional top end repros as they require time/money/knowledge to be integrated properly.
Pricing on the " Make an offer" basis is fine as it ends up showing the real value on our "market".
Most builders here are experienced  long time simmers and ready to invest in quality parts when avail.

Hi Chris,

I am glad you joined the CB! Also, thank you for all that you did when I visited SwissTeknik; I had great time running around Tempe, as well as I enjoyed our off-topic conversation very much.

Please take a look at my Trip Report in a different thread, as that sums it all up pretty well.

Thanks so much,

John

Hi Chris...

Thanks for going out of your way for John when he came down there. Your all he talkes about and all the items he now wants. Sorry I missed the road trip but someone has to stay back and work... I mean shovel snow...

The panels look nice, a little dusty but it's my job to get them clean before he puts them in the plane.

Thanks again for all your help
