Re: Baofeng radios
I'm not 'backseat moderating', (maybe I am) but there's already a thread on this in the correct section of the members only lounge, an eBay link and the word 'scam' is not great in an open forum.

Re: Baofeng radios
I can't see how we can be scammed, In the case of a no show (Very likely) ebay will refund us. Anyhow its only four quid odds, Thought it was worth a punt.paulears wrote:Ooh - mine too. Shall we hold our breath together. Quite fun really. Waiting to be scammed!

Absolutely - it's just that if it's too good to be true, it usually is. I shall be amazed if we get two radios each, for the kind of money that doesn't even pay for UK postage! Kind of fun though.

Re: Baofeng radios
More exciting than a flutter on the grand national Its dodgy to say the least, And the fact that he seems to have an unlimited supply of them also sets alarm bells ringing. But who knows, This time next month we could be tripling our moneypaulears wrote:Absolutely - it's just that if it's too good to be true, it usually is.
