Please cancel my $15.00 payment. When I signed on I didn't realize I would have to pay a fee.

Wow....sounds like this guy would have trouble pouring piss out of a boot with a hole in the toe and instructions on the heel.

The following message has been sent to you in response to your Astromart classified ad #933606 - 'If you are not getting emails.......'.
This email was sent by registered Astromart user EDIT - [email protected] (edit, TX) via Astromart's email ad response system. Should you choose to reply to this email message, your response will be sent directly to the recipient and will not pass through or be associated with Astromart in any way.

Why are you showing me a picture of this ASSHOLE? He is just another Clinton piece of crap that is now history along with her.

This will be the last time I subscribe to AMart. This business about instant access to ads and not getting a response because I am only a $15 AMarter is total bullshit. I do not need your site and I have had much better success over the years on Cloudy Nights selling and buying stuff without any of the problems I have encountered on your site.

Cloudy Nights is free by the way. Not that I mind paying something, but I don't need this hassle.

This is about what I would expect from a fringe KOOK blue state like Washington. You are part of the left coast. Need I say more. Case closed.

No question on his political leanings but definite concerns on his comprehension abilities.

Where are my sent emails?

Posted By Greg Shaffer

Suresh Sreenivasan said:

Greetings,

Where do I go to view the emails I have sent to prospective sellers?

I cannot find my sent messages, and I haven't figured out how to have a copy of my sent messages emailed to me either... All that I can find is the inbox to the seller responses... of which there are none. I'm not even sure that they received my inquiry.

Best regards,

Suresh

They would be in your sent mail folder of whatever email program you are using....that has nothing to do with astromart.

Unless of course you meant the astromart private mail system instead of emails. If you did then I don't believe there is a sent folder.... I personally wouldn't be using the PM system to conduct business since you don't have a record of what you sent using PM's

Trump's Latest 3:00am TweetStorm!

Posted By Greg Shaffer

Rod Kaufman said:

In one breath, the recount, according to Trump, is a scam while, at the same time, we heard him claiming the election was rigged, unless, of course, he won. Now, he falsely claims, and his followers here and elsewhere, firmly believe that millions illegally voted so he lost the popular vote. The reality, of course, is Trump , as usual, is wrong. Not that it will change the beliefs of those in an alternate reality but the facts are:

It is a scam.... and herein lies what is likely driving it.

no e-mail notifications

Posted By Greg Shaffer

Jon Martin said:

I noticed that I was not getting notified of new ads. I went to my settings page and saw that my selections for notifications had all been removed. I re-selected the ads I wanted to monitor but, I am still not receiving any e-mail notifications of any new ads. My account is up to date and does not expire until well into 2017. This is the first time in many years of using a-mart that this has happened.

There was recently an issue with AM's service provider that led to some problems depending on who your own email provider is so there is a possibility that's your issue. However I believe AM changed providers as a result of the issue so probably not.

In looking at your previous ads they don't appear to have any highlight color like those do that pay support fees. If your support period has expired and you are only operating under the yearly $15 access fee then you wont receive email notifications. Only supporters who pay the additional support fees have the option of receiving email notifications of new ads. If you click on the "support astromart" option at the top right of your screen you will see the different support options which offer various timeframes like 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, a year and lifetime.

Meade Series 4000 Smoothies

Posted By Greg Shaffer

Chris Nisbet said:

Well, after years of surfing ads, I have finally acquired the complete set of the first generation Meade Series 4000 eyepieces-the "Smoothies". I use them in a C11 and have found them to be excellent eyepieces. The build quality is superb. I know they are almost 30 years old but there is just something about them (there is probably a support group for people like me). Plus the challenge of finding and assembling a complete set was kinda fun. Just had to have patience.

NICE!! I have a pair of 24.5mm SWA and a pair of 18mm SWA I use for binoviewing and they are indeed excellent EP's.....

On Trump: To Release Or Not...

On tape, calling his son a "retard" while using the n-word and the c-word:
http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2016/12/20/tom-arnold-claims-has-tapes-donald-trumps-racist-outtakes-from-apprentice.html
He should have released it...

I claim it but I wont substantiate it.....now there is a real reason to give it credence.
