Grundig G5 / Eton E5 Good Buy?
Don't believe the poster, who suggested that shipping costs wipe out
any gains, saved by buying the Degen, over the Eton - he is just a poor
sap, who payed way too much for his Eton, and could have gotten two
Degens, for the price of his one Eton.
As you can see, shipping is just $25, and the radio is just $50. If
you order tow, they probably give you a break on the shipping.
Thanks for the kind words. If you read my post, I said if there was a
problem with the radio, the shipping would wipe out the savings. You
do the math. Radio + shipping = 75. If a problem, shipping at 25 each
way =50, total = 125.
I paid precisely $125.48 including shipping for my E5.
That's my opinion and is the only one I have.
The Degen is fine, and if you have no problems, you save $50.
Again, in my opinion, the digital readout and real volume control, etc
of the E5 are important improvements. You got your best value with the
Degen, and I got my best value with the E5. Why not just leave it at
that?
