Seller sold exactly what they listed. The price (when it was discounted) was right in my range. It was shipped carefully and packed well in a generic box. There was an issue with USPS (not the sellers fault) and they were quickly to assist. The laptop was clean and easy to setup. All I had to do was order a battery (it was listed as being without). I would recommend buying something from them again this is at least my second time buying from them. Probably not my last.

Exactly as described, works great. Also probably the most thoughtful/careful packaging I’ve seen. Shipping cost were the most reasonable I’ve seen— and the item arrived in a day! Definitely bookmarked this seller for the future!

  • Very poor performance

    I'm surprised that people are paying big money for these radios. Yes, some models in the series look neat, but all of them are actually rather poor radios. They are not sensitive because they have very little amplification in them. They are virtually deaf on band 4. They are very poor at copying CW or sideband, and have poor selectivity. Then there is the "hot chassis" shock hazard with them. As a ham radio operator, I've owned a couple and repaired many of the S-38 series. Save your money, do a little home work and buy a better quality radio.
