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. |

Bummer. The wife ordered me a whatever for Christmas. She ordered it from userID in China through eBay. 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. Thought you weren't supposed to list items on eBay unless you had the item on hand. 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. -- Regards, Bob Niland http://www.access-one.com/rjn email4rjn AT yahoo DOT com NOT speaking for any employer, client or Internet Service Provider. |

Looks like Liypn is gonna get some heavy competition from those selling Kaito's in the USA. 1 yr USA warranty, and AC adapter. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...0611 087&rd=1 |

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. 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. |

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. |

I bought two radios from lipyn, a DE-1102 and a PL-550 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. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/htm...hinaoil27.html Feel good? |

Most any free enterprise is good 'tard boy as long as it does not involve trade with CanaDuh or ChinUh. dxAce Michigan USA Boycott CanaDuh andChinUh. One sucks, and one blows. You decide. |

Clue: The Chinese Communist Party has its hand in practically every "business" undertaking in China. Since everything electronic is now made in China, this means that it's now impossible to find a brand new SW radio that does NOT have some connection to the Chinese Communist Party. If you want to know who to thank for this, look at the American and Japanese CEOs who can't resist having their products made by laborers making 10 cents a day, even if it means giving the ruling party a cut of the profits. In the process, they have so destroyed the industrial bases of America and Japan that the Japanese economy is in a permanent depression and the US economy is headed there, and the US military can't adequately equip its soldiers. Americans and Japanese: when you're starving to death because all the jobs in your countries have been exported to China, don't eat your Degen, eat the nearest filthy rich "multinational" CEO. Oh, you COULD buy a used "new in box" made in Japan Sony off ebay-if you want to pay an exorbitant price for it. |

When I was a kid, all my pets met untimely ends, so eventually I got banned from the pet stores. I now have no idea what they carry in the way of Merchandise OR what it tastes like cooked. The Quebecois were Canadian before the Anglais wars, so it's unlikely they'd keep each other as pets...the interior decorating types notwithstanding, of course. As for training, it's not needed. Hockey seems to be in the blood from birth. In order to keep a universal balance, ninety percent of our Football players are YouAlls and about the same ratio of YOUR hockey players are Canadians...except this year, when they're merely unemployed. mike -- "Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.

Clue: The Chinese Communist Party has its hand in practically every "business" undertaking in China. True! Since everything electronic is now made in China, this means that it's now impossible to find a brand new SW radio that does NOT have some connection to the Chinese Communist Party. False! The only in production Sony SW radios I am aware of that are made in China are the low end SW35 & SW11 models. If you want to know who to thank for this, look at the American and Japanese CEOs who can't resist having their products made by laborers making 10 cents a day. Wrong! Blame the Chinese Communist Party which grossly underpays its workforce and still insists on undervalueing its currency. Which incidently, has been pegged to the US$ for a decade now while their economy grows by leaps and bounds. Furthermore, as the US$ depreciates (at least 15% so far) so does the Chinese Yuan$ making Chinese produced products ever more cheaper in the rest of the worlds currencies. even if it means giving the ruling party a cut of the profits. In the process, they have so destroyed the industrial bases of America and Japan that the Japanese economy is in a permanent depression and the US economy is headed there, The Japanese are the most nepotistic society on earth. Beleive me they would rather employ Japanese rather then Chinese which the Japanese historically don't carry any fond love for. The world, including Japan, has simply been forced to compete on price. If factories don't lower their cost the company will cease to exist. Now it is China's move just as it was Japan's back in the 80's. We have been here before - how soon we forget! |

compete on price. If factories don't lower their cost the company will cease to exist. Now it is China's move just as it was Japan's back in the 80's. We have been here before - how soon we forget! Spot On! It always comes down to supply and demand, expenses vs revenue, and who can stay profitable. Right now, the environment in China allows for an easier path to profitability for that market - regardless of how the little guy may, or may not, get dumped on. I'm pretty confident that is the way things will remain until the day when food, clothing and shelter are completely free... Selling out to China Senior vice presidents of Microsoft: "It's definitely a cultural change to use foreign workers. But if I can save a dollar, hallelujah." The time for playing nice with corporate turncoats and their enablers in government is over. It's time to name names and demand that American companies act like they actually give a damn about the land of the free and the home of the brave. http://www.washingtontimes.com/comme...4039-4953r.htm |

I thought so too, but just checking, I find no obvious rule/guideline, nor anything in the User Agreement. You are allowed to list items for future delivery on ebaY if you anticipate having the product in hand within 30 days. This has been the case ever since I helped run nicmac042200 to ground on ebaY a few years ago, even though as usual ebaY refused to listen until it cost them something like a quarter million in claims for non-delivery. His gimmick was selling future delivery of state quarters at a discount from face value. You could buy quarters from him for as little as $2 a roll for Hawaii and Alaska, due in 2008. Among other things, he got high FB ratings by promising free shipping (at some future date) for anyone who left him positive FB, so you had people telling everyone what great service, etc he provided when in fact they had never received anything from him. For an interesting story of the wilder and woolier days of ebaY, check http://www.deja.com and type in nicmac and Ponzi. I had people telling me I was wrong back then, too. Until they finally realized they weren't going to get their $1000 in quarters they paid $700 for. -- Outgoing mail is certified ******** |
