Long before people were modding these I got one for $20 CAD from Aliexpress. The speaker only works intermittently, requiring me to push on the case to get it to work (I guess there's a weak solder joint or something). I contacted the seller and of course just got infinite runaround. Either way, "buyer beware", these things are insanely cheap for a reason. Basically a dollar-store HT. :P
- sedatk 3y agoJust buy it on Amazon for $10 more, and you're good to go.
- mschuster91 3y agoAll that adds is fast shipping because someone with an alphabet soup brand name upfronted a bit of money to get a container load of them shipped from China to an Amazon warehouse.
- sedatk 3y agoIt adds no-hassle returns.
- amatecha 3y agoUh, on Amazon Canada, the Quansheng UV-K5 is being sold for $125.99 heh
- transcriptase 3y agoOrder straight from Aliexpress. You can get one for around ~$30 CAD all in depending on the day. And believe it or not the shipping only takes a couple weeks.
- amatecha 3y agoThat's exactly what I did! Thus my original post lol.. I was refuting the parent post's suggestion to "just buy it on Amazon" as if the Amazon return policy is worth paying $100 extra for a $20 radio haha
- sedatk 3y agoIt depends on that random reseller's pricing, no? I got mine for $30.
