Re: [IRCA] New XHDATA D-808 Poertable for $75.64
If you access eBay international sellers, there is one seller who has 4 units for $75.00 plus $9.00 shipping and another who is selling them for $90.00 with free shipping. Radios shipped from China.

Re: [IRCA] New XHDATA D-808 Poertable for $75.64
Hi Gary, I noticed that excellent price on the D-808 too! It's almost as good as the original $70 price of the first D-808, through AliExpress. Others may not be aware of the global Ebay search engine "Geo-Ship". The web site is: www.geo-ship.com I've located a number of Ebay bargains through this service, including the recent D-808 bargain. I've noticed that a number of Ebay sellers will ship internationally, but they do not post their auctions on all, or more than one, Ebay site. Geo-Ship can reveal these auctions; it helps to configure the search settings to "All Ebay sites" (except Ebay Motors) and set the drop-down "Location - Available to..." box to "United States" (or whatever your home country is). 73, Guy Atkins Puyallup, WA ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
[IRCA] New XHDATA D-808 Poertable for $75.64
As most North American DXers found out last year, the cost to purchase an XHDATA D-808 AM-FM-LW-SW-AIR SSB portable in the USA or Canada was significantly higher than in the rest of the world (around $112, in comparison to around $75). Apparently an eBay seller is now offering new D-808 models to USA purchasers for around $75, but you need to order through the Australian eBay system at https://www.ebay.com/itm/XHDATA-D-808-Digital-Portable-Radio-FM-stereo-SW-MW-LW-SSB-AIR-RDS-Multi-Band/183176708238?hash=item2aa62ec08e:g:KG8AAOSwHqdaz1l6:rk:17:pf:0 You will need to pay AU $12 shipping (about $8), but the radio is shipped from China, and the total cost will still be far below the other eBay listings. I don't know if this is a quirk that will soon disappear, but interest in the model remains very high, so nail down your new D-808 at $75.64 while you can.
