Default Help - geoff truscott

Help please.

Does anyone here know Geoff Truscott (Johnny Canuck) from Ottawa.

I bought some WW2 radios - currently at Geoff's waiting to be shipped.

I have traded with him successfully over the years with no issues... but now have heard nothing from him since December.

I have tried messaging on here, email, and phoning - no response.

Does anyone here know him or live in Ottawa and willing to go to his house to see if he is ok please?

Many thanks

Tim

Hi Guys,

In response to posts here on MLU last year I opened up a dialogue and tried to purchase some small items and spare parts from Geoff last year also but after a string of emails back and forth he just dropped off with no explanation ��*♂️

Cheers

Phill

Hello Tim

I believe Geoff still maintains an eBay Store. You could try sending him a message via that route.

He was last on this site on the 23rd of December.
I had a look for his ebay store and did not find anything.

I paid him a visit last fall and everything was fine, hopefully nothing has happened to him. I will see what I can find out,

I successfully bought an aerial support bracket from him late last year, and that arrived OK. (Comms were a bit intermittent, payment method was somewhat bizarre, but it all worked, even the international shipping, and I didn't get "dinged" for import duty or handling fees.)

All

Geoff has been in contact.

He is alive and well, so that is a relief.

Many thanks to all who've offered support in this.

Regards

Tim
