Wow! I was just in Shenzhen a couple of weeks ago. Maybe I will try to
get a tour next trip. I had no idea they were there!

Please do so. And while you're there, check how much their DE1102s,
DE1103s, DE1121s and the like cost : I truly appreciate paying around
$50 for radios nearly as good as my many-$100 Sonys (or even Sangean),
but maybe I just get ripped off as well (though on another scale) and
they sell for the equivalent of $5 in China !


the guy that sent a de1103, a sw & am antenna took an insurance for 27$ ....

I paid 85 euros, ship inc...

Tough... For your future buys, you should not wander away from two
reliable EBay sellers named "liypn"
(http://stores.ebay.fr/V-COM-COLLECTIONS) and "tquchina" (can't find
his shop right now 'cause he said he'd be away -i.e. in the States- for
the comming week, but any search with "Redsun", "Tecsun", "DE1103" or
the like finds him). The DE1103 goes for $60-70 including S&H there.
