Enjoy your new radio. Personally, I am not enamored with the x36 radios, at least the 536 for reasons I have already listed before. But if you are happy, that is all that matters.

Ok got my 436 from Jet.com, very pleased.
Unit is brand new in the box, looks and works perfect.
Did the ProVoice upgrade and it is decoding nicely.

I am happy.

Did it have the yellow/white screen or the blue?

Jet.com

I became aware of them in early December, 2015. I've purchased from them several times. All items have arrived quickly, well packaged and at excellent prices. I will continue doing business with them.

Is this why my 536 came back from Uniden with a white screen instead of a blue screen when it was repaired? Did they move away from the blue screen? Because I turned it on and thought there was something wrong with me :)

The white is the updated fix for dimming issues.

That sentence in their Return Policy worries me: "There, you’ll be able to see the amount you’ll be credited for your return and print a shipping label. " Does that mean you would NOT be refunded FULL amount?

Also, what's your guarantees and repair options?

Check the fine print

I have not purchased from them,but others here have had a good experience with them. I am getting ready to purchase a Home Patrol 2 from them.

I did find a coupon code 15today which will take $50.00 off the price. The code was still working last time I checked.

I saw that coupon.....when I looked closer it had 'small print' limiting the value to $35.00. While that's still a good discount.....I would prefer it was not misleading which it could be if you don't happen to see the limit...

Okay, I owe the thread an update on Jet.com. My radio did arrive on Thursday was ordered on Saturday. Not bad shipping. The radio is a newer one and was new in box.

My issue with Jet.com still remains. The communications on shipping are lacking. It wend 4 days without an update, just said pending. When I finally saw an update, the item was 1 day from delivery. In the end I got a good deal, $351 for a new 436, delivered.

They must have changed the coupon value. When I originally tried the coupon code it took $50.00 off of the price.

When I order my HP-2, updates on shipping and delivery was lacking. But did get the scanner in a timely matter! I have ordered from Jet.com a couple of times and always got my items shipped pretty quickly. Maybe in time they will improve on communication as they are a fairly new company.

There are a several coupon codes that you can use that takes between $30 to $50 off order. It depends on which one you use.

Ah, okay...thanks.

I've never used Jet before....do they accept PayPal? I couldn't tell just by browsing the site. I'm assuming you won't know until you go to the payment page of the cart.....

I bit the bullet and decided to order my 436 from Jet.com yesterday, 4/14. Payment was processed immediately and in the confirmation email thanking me for my order, I clicked on the order number and was able to get shipping information right then and there by clicking on "Track Package". Label was created this morning and I have an estimated delivery of this coming Tuesday by 4:30. So far....so good.

Some of the people on here said that they couldn't find any shipping information. Is the "Track Package" next to the Reorder button something new?

when you say was a "newer one", do you mean one that has the new display and no display issues? if so, i will order one from Jet. did u ask to make sure u were getting new and "fixed", or what did you do?
