hi gary,

Of course, it doesnt really cost 24 dollars to ship a small radio to the u.s., they're making about 15 dollars on the shipping costs. its an old ebay trick. sell something for 10 bucks and charge 30 dollars to ship it.

i wonder how many more radios they'ld sell, if the shipping costs were 10 or 12 bucks.

another cost comes if the radio doesnt work, and you have to ship it back, then wait for a replacement radio to come back again.
4-6 weeks maybe.

i wonder when they'll add a removable antenna to the 380, like they did on the 360 ? after everyone has already bought their 380's ???
