I am with Joe on that. PayPal works great when you buy things, but when you sell them..., let’s say, it depends.

You can read about vendors with multiple thousands of dollars locked up in disputes they can’t do much about. So…….your favorite vendor may have a good reason to pass on it ;) Joe Coquina From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Danny Haughey via CnC-List Sent: Monday, May 02, 2016 11:33 To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Danny Haughey Subject: Re: Stus-List Electronics installation Yep I'm aware of that. It is paypal credit to be more specific. I've been using PayPal for MANY years and have not had any issues. I both bought and sold items. I'm sorry you had a bad experience. From my selling experience, I was obliged to ship until the moneys cleared. I'd get a safe to ship confirmation. Anyway, it was what I needed at the time... Oh and I just rechecked my invoice, I paid $2633.10 and $9.00 for shipping. So after rebate, I'll have paid $2342 for a complete below deck AP! I just check Hodges again and it is now $2714.00 The retail is like $3200 and defender has it $2950. I'm glad I jumped on it!

I sold an iPod, got the money, and forgot to ship it before I went on vacation. When I got back 3 days later I got a note the transaction was fraudulent and the money had been taken back. Good thing I was late shipping! (not a non-shipment issue, the buyer had created a fake account somehow) Joe Coquina C&C 35 MK I Equipped with a heat exchanger paid for via PayPal J From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Danny Haughey via CnC-List Sent: Monday, May 02, 2016 09:30 To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Danny Haughey Subject: Re: Stus-List Electronics installation Hi Fred, I have not asked them to be honest. probably not but, I'll reach out to them too. The cinching factor on choosing the vendor was that I could pay over 6 months interest free through PayPal. It gave me some breathing room financially. Otherwise it would have been a no brainer to buy from you. Have you ever thought about offering the PayPal option for payment? I understand if you are not willing to contribute advice to a non customer. No worries! I Impulsively purchased the AP for $2660 just before the rebate offer expired and got the no payments no interest for 6 months. It was a really good deal! I did install instruments on my last boat. Plotter, Instruments and auto pilot. So, I have some experience. Those were not all matched up though. I was thinking this might be a bit easier using the connectors. The AP is going to be a challenge in mounting the drive. I think that is more work and fabrication than anything else. So, that will come in the latter part of the install. I also have to buy the tiller arm...

All raymarine. I got the radar/chart plotter combo and a ev200 below deck auto pilot. The boat already has raymarine wind,speed,depth instruments that were installed last summer. Is hoping I could get some advice on layout and cabling. These are supposed to all work together. Are there any diagrams available to show how to connect everything? I understand the AP can be controlled thru the MFD. Would that lead me to install the control head in another location so there isn't 2 at the helm if I install the Plotter there. I've also acquired an iPad 2 with GPS I can use as part of the whole plan. Does using all recent raymarine ease the installation as far running cable? I was thinking the AP components could all be installed very near the rudder post under the cockpit. Course computer could go there, then all the cabling to and from it would be short. Anyway, any insights or direction will be greatly appreciated!
