SDS 100 Pricing

[wwhitby]

Understood but that doesn't help the people it might take a few months to save.

I'd be happy if it only took months to save up for a new scanner. The past 10 years haven't been too kind to my discretionary income......

 

[webtron-x]

Add eBay seller webtron-x to the list of sellers of the SDS100. As expected, the price is $649.99 with FREE "Standard Shipping" included and coming from Waterford, Wisconsin. It also states that there are "30-day returns." The seller has a 99.6% positive feedback rating with 24,331 sales to date.

There are currently 5 available and here's the link if you are interested: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Uniden-SDS...canner-Trunking-SDR-APCO-P25-DMR/123174914546

Thank you! I just received another 60 in this morning and will have 40 more tomorrow. They are selling very fast.

Thank you. I see it now but just found out tat HRO shipped mine today at the standard price. Their re-stocking fee of 15% would rule out the savings from eBay.
Day late and a dollar short!

Where are the details about the battery thing? At least where the first ones get an upgraded one for free? I thought there was a separate thread that Paul started but I'm either overlooking it or it was just stated in another thread and I'm not finding it...

Nip it In the Bud in the Tech Support subforum.

Thanks. I was looking for 'battery' in the title; forgot he had titled it that.

I want to thank all who offered their assistance. The order from HRO that I thought was the SDS100 turned out to be a couple of UHF adaptors I ordered yesterday. Having received no notice from HRO regarding the SDS100, I sent an email cancelling that order and got this deal just under the wire!

Did you pay the 30 dollar pre-sale fee? Or did you just order it when it was released ?

Congratulations on just making it in and good luck to you with your new SDS100!!!

There was no $30 fee, just preordered.

Did you not read the thread? Uniden forced the seller (webtron-x) to raise his price. He had no choice. Had you been a bit quicker, you could have scored one before the price went up.

 

[mule1075]

Only Authorized Dealers have access to sell the SDS100. These dealers have agreed to a MAP policy in order to protect the Uniden brand. They are, however, free to sell the scanner at any price they want, but breaking MAP could result in the dealer losing their authorization to sell the product or receive additional inventory. The MAP policy includes, among other stipulations, that the product must be excluded from site-wide discounts if said discounts would result in the product being sold for less than the agreed MAP.

Thank you for the clarification. Haters going to hate and call illegal as they are now. Thanks Paul.

 

[woodpecker]

Our legal counsel and the Supreme Court disagree with your legal assessment. The dealer was reminded of the MAP policy and opted to take steps to maintain MAP. He could also have kept the price where it was, taken the product off the site, or lowered the price. We did not force him (and legally cannot force anyone) to change the price. This is not spin. This is both law and common practice (and my final communique on the matter).

Your dealers words:-

"Uniden is not happy about the coupon and made me raise price to $749.99"

does "made me" not equal FORCE HIM?

wise871 have you got home to play yet? Enjoy all I see is X100 new UNIDEN FANBOYS

we no longer have a 800 number

Ham Station's 800 order line number has been busy all morning (since the news of the SDS100 shipping.) Ask me how I know.

 

[KevinC]

Just a FYI, once the eBay coupon expires I'm deleting all the posts about it since they will no longer be relevant.

Or maybe move them to the Tavern for historical reference (that's probably a better idea).

Interesting. Got it off of what I *thought* was your site. It was busy anyway.

This is the number I called: 800-729-4373, although it's not on the webpage anymore.

However, a quick Google search still shows it, so I guess I wasn't dreaming :

Might take a while for Google to reindex.

Yeah, I would bet that description info is cached...or it could be left over search data (whatever it's called that sites can put out there to show up in searches).
