They do not remove out-of-stock items from their website when sold out, but they continue to take orders for them. In a couple of days, they notify you the item is no longer in stock, thereby wasting your time you could have spent looking elsewhere. This has happened to me several times. Actual phone conversation: Me: Can you check stock on part number xxxx? Them: No. No explanation, no "sorry", nothing but "no". These are not my kind of people. Bill, W6WRT I find it odd that the original poster felt a need to post about the company to three different newsgroups (likely bad enough that he felt the need, made worse by doing multiple posting), especially given that the company has been around for decades. I remember when I first saw an ad for the company years ago, and thought "wow". But when I got a catalog, I felt the prices were outrageous. Maybe if you want to rebuild a KWM-2 to out of the box standards you're willing to pay large prices for the exact knob, but as a surplus outlet I felt there were better prices elsewhere. Because when you see the word "surplus", you immediately think of low prices compared to new stock. Michael VE2BVW |
