According to the 2004 Passport to World Band Radio...

"The ICF-SW07 is no longer listed on the Sony of America's website nor
that of Sony Canada or Sony Deutschland. However, U.S. radio dealers
report that they continue to obtain stock on a regular basis. This
model is listed as Sony's "Flagship World Band Receiver" on the
website of Sony United Kingdom.

If you try to buy the SW07 now on Amazon, its no longer at that low price.
Now back to $399.88. I wonder if that was a screw up? Congrats to anyone
that got it for that price (149.88). On a whim, I had one in my shopping
cart at the low price from earlier in the day, but it wouldn't let me buy it
at that price now.

I suspect the Amazon $149.88 on the Sony ICF-SW07
will sell out fairly quick as that is over 50% off the regular price and the
radio gets very good reviews. If anyone on here buys it, it is a small
radio, not the size of a YB400PE or Sangean 909....much smaller than those
two. It about the size of a cigarette pack.

Amazon has the Sony ICF-SW07 on sale for 149.88 USD. Isn't the list price
for this receiver ususally much higher (around 350-400 USD)?

I suspect it was an ERROR and NO ONE will get one for that price...

I can't be sure, but I don't think that it was a screw-up. The
$149.88 price appeared to be offered -directly- by Amazon and had a
little "hot deal" tag on the page, indicating to me that it wasn't in
error. If you look now, the radio being offered on the site is
through an Amazon "partner" (J & R in NYC) at J & R's price. I think
it's pretty possible that Amazon sold all of "their" radios--or as
many as they intended to--and is now just "partnering" with J & R,
which they do on some electronics.

I ordered it at the $149.88 price and I have a UPS tracking number. ;)

It's a bit larger than a pack of smokes - 5.4x1.3x3.6

Congrats on a good buy. I just checked the Amazon site and the price
is back up to $399.88 .......... once again I'm a day late & a dollar
short 8-{ Oh well, maybe I'll be the guy who gets the new Drake R8B
for $500!
