Bummer. The wife ordered me a Degen 1103 for Christmas. She ordered
it from Liypn through eBay. He must have had a lot of orders
because he's out and won't get more for a couple of weeks or so.
Thought you weren't supposed to list items on eBay unless you had the
item on hand.

I bought two radios from lipyn, a DE-1102 and a PL-550. The experience
with the first one was excellent. As for the second, I purchased it on
August 13. On arrival, I discovered that the wall wart didn't work (with
the included adapter of course). I contact lipyn on or about August 30
about getting a replacement. I sent the wall wart back before labor day by
air mail--2 week delivery time. Since I'd paid the "insurance" so I was
expecting prompt replacement--after all, I had found the deficiency within
7 days of receiving the item, so I expected the "warranty" quoted in the
auction would be quickly honored, which is, immediately replacement.
Instead, I got the run around and finally got a replacement just before
Christmas.

Based on this long replacement time, despite the misleading auction
description, I'm not going to be a repeat customer. When the auction
description promises prompt replacement for defects, a 3 month wait
approximately between the defective item being received by the seller, and
finally the replacement being posted (december 15) is not reasonable. If
you buy from lipyn, and you pay the "insurance", be prepared to ship the
entire package back immediately if you find any defect in any component, or
it will be a long wait.
