Looks nice but that shipping charge? $40?




Shipping is spendy these days. For a properly packed radio, that doesn't
sound unreasonable to me. Cost me $8 just to ship a little box recently.


It would cost about $13 UPS, but packing would be the rest if you
purchased new boxes for it. But the radio does look nicely redone. I
wonder what it will go for. I have the model which uses loctals and they
are easier to find and even more suited to a portable.
