No Degen 1103 yet
 
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.

Where are you located? I wonder what the shipping,
customs, brokerage & holding fees (if any) would have
been in you are in another country.

He must have had a lot of orders because he's out ...


Was he ever "in"? It's coin flip as to whether this
is a stocking seller or a drop-shipping seller.

Unless they can't count, stocking sellers have no
excuse for running more listings than they have units.

I thought so too, but just checking, I find no obvious
rule/guideline, nor anything in the User Agreement.

Finally, a quick look at FB timestamps (esp. the
recent exchange of Neg fire) suggests that this seller
is an FB hostager. Chances are they have a lot more
unhappy customers than the 4 negs (3 removed) suggest.

Did they tell you it was shipped?

Looks like Liypn is gonna get some heavy competition from those selling
Kaito's in the USA. 1 yr USA warranty, and AC adapter.

Perhaps he couldn't afford the shipping. The airlines being so greedy
and all, the

Degen Air Rate

may be just too outlandish.

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.

According to my calculations, there are 17 days between August 13 and
August 30. Perhaps this was a typo. If it wasn't, then you didn't find
the defect within the warranty period.

You're not figuring in the transit time for shipping. It was purchased on
August 13.. it takes a while to get from China to stateside.. even having
gotten the radio in 17 days was pretty good time.

Correct, it was received and signed for on August 27.

For the same price of those two cheap radios you could have had one
excellent radio that actually worked superbly.
So, you sent two donations to the Communist Party of China.
