Default Finally, I bought a radio!! :)

Friends,
I was going crazy trying to decide which radio to get. All of you
wonderful friends gave me so much to consider. I would find one and
then research and find something that scared me. I was going to get
the upcoming Grundig Satellite 750, but it really would not suit my
desire for a portable to take to parks and stuff.
I came across the Sangean ATS-909 and found a DEAL on Amazon. Most
of their stock was around $250+. However, one seller has it for $91
NEW! I decided based on research and that deal to go with it. I hope I
am not making a mistake. Also, keep in mind this is my first real SW
radio and if I am truly bitten by the bug, I will end up getting the
Satellite 750 for my home use, down the road.
Check out this page and while the top says around $250, scroll down
about half way and you will see the $91. It came to about $97 with
s/h.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...G/ref=dp_olp_2

Finally I can return to studying music at college. At night when I
should have been practicing, instead I was reading The Passport to
World Band Radio. I hate to see what happens when the radio arrives!
Thank all of you so much and I will continue to be present here and
thank you for answering repeat questions that I hope did not appear,
for lack of a better word, stupid.

Best to you always,
Haci

Something is way wrong here.
It will be interesting to see how this thread continues.
What's the old adage?
If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

I tend to agree. I think Amazon will protect him for losing money. And
who knows, maybe it is a great deal. It just doesn't make sense though
for one vendor to charge so much less that the others.

Keep us posted Hacienda.

Oh, I don't know. When Circuit City, (or was it Best Buy?), was
giving Eton E1XM for $225, the other one was still selling them for full
retail.

Sanjaya,
I hope I get what it says. Believe me, I will post here the day I
get it.
Remember, it said it is new. It did not say it works!!!! (Now I
am getting worried...)

Actually, I paid a total of $97.00. I got a copy of the bill or
receipt today via e-mail. It states it is BRAND NEW and I copied all
of the pages with Print Page in case something turns up wrong, I am
covered.

And I am excited too!
