I got in on the last one, but alas, that didn't pan out. Soon as I ordered, it came back that the seller had been banned from eBay.  Got my money back after the product delivery window had passed.

I was browsing the other night  and found the 2 pack for $10, shipped. I fo'd.

Question is, has anyone ever received a radio when ordering for such a ridiculously low price?  I figured, $10, not much to lose.

Plus, I got a refund without too much trouble last time.

Seller has 322 feedback, 100% positive, and has been a member since 2012.

So, anyone get lucky with this and actually receive some radios?

http://www.viglink.com/shop?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.viglink.com%2Fshop&ca=54582&cp=1659178&c=j1guhp2iio00zk8a04mjk<=&ou=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F252859424755%3F_trksid%3Dp2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Interestingly enough, the item was updated.  Now, listing for $15.

EDIT: Link won't paste correctly.  Bizarre. Hold on, while I work on it.

EDIT EDIT:  Can't hotlink...keeps changing the URL.  Copy and paste that into the browser and see if it gets you to the listing.

EDIT EDIT EDIT:  ??????  Keeps changing the link to Vigilink something or other crap, even though I'm not hotlinking.

Try this:  here's the guy's online store.  See if you can get to it from there.

EDIT EDIT EDIT EDIT: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHH!  What is going on?

OK.  Type into your browser: www.ebay.com slash usr slash denis_belausov

Never seen that do that before. Hopefully, you can get it to work that way.

AR15.com gets paid for retailers products linked on this site. That why the links are getting changed.

Viglink is supposed to monetize existing product links by wrapping their code around the URL. Unfortunately, something appears to be messed up and the original links are being lost.

www.ebay.com itm 252859424755  (replace spaces with slashes) or just plug that last number into ebay search.

I figured I'd give it a shot too since it's just refund money from the last guy plus a few bucks (that is already sitting in paypal)


btw: any mods reading this...  This whole viglink stuff is reducing the usability of info provided here.  I know you have to monetize somehow, but consider the impact to usability.

Nope.  Not going to do it.  I have been raped too many times by Chinese vendors who don't deliver or deliver crap that doesn't work.  If the product isn't already in the US, they can keep it.

I have mine in ebay claims, apparently the original seller of the 9.99 2-pack closed their account and never sent anything out.

The viglinks are totally fucked.  We need to stop using hotlinks.

This sounds too good to be true.  
I bought about six UV82. I think they fit better for certain type of emergencies than the expensive Yaesus, Kenwoods etc. $28 from a US based reseller is not a huge investment.
