How To Use The Greene Sheet: A Note From Your Uncle Geo.
- How it works: Choose a category at left to
browse (If there is no category menu click
here.) You’re never more than a click and scroll away from any of
our listings! Each listing has
an item number. It is helpful to refer to this when you call or e-mail.
Listings are updated automatically every night with everything we know
about for sale.
- Prices: Sellers who list with us set
their own prices -preferably with our guidance. Obviously some sellers
don’t get that old stuff isn’t worth much anymore so make an offer. Our counsel
to sellers is often “A bird in hand, dude...” The Greene Sheet
charges less than most brokers. Are we crazy, merciful or just stupid? You
decide.
- Our Part: We’ve all been on the
production side and the equipment sales side so you'll find us happy to
offer our sage advice on technical matters. Uncle Geo and his minions use
vast and sophisticated global resources to find gear to list. Like most
brokers we do not stock most of the gear we sell. If we did we’d
have an expensive warehouse full of Laird 1500s and other unsaleable crap
no one wants and we’d have to charge higher fees.
- Sellers Part: Sellers should provide accurate
descriptions, check gear out fully, pack things extremely well and insure
shipments.
- Buyers Part: If you want gear quickly wire
funds to us. Checks must clear before we'll instruct the seller to ship.
We escrow your money while you check out the gear –it does not go
directly to the seller. Buyers
need to check gear out within the 48 hour period -after which, if we
haven’t heard from you we may release funds to the seller.
- Everyone's Part: We should all act like adults
and play fair. Keep transactions moving when you have the ball. Honor your
commitments. Brush your teeth. Be nice to your sister.

Reload Often!
Though this may be the battle cry of disaffected loonies in Idaho, here it
means that you should click your browser’s reload button when getting to
The Greene Sheet (or any other site you frequent.) Why? Do you sometimes get
the feeling that you are looking at an older version of a page you've surfed to?
If you have an old version still in your browser's cache --it may load instead
of the newest page. This is true for many browsers. You can usually set an
option in your browser to “check for new pages always.” Refer to
your browser's manual.
