Since this thread has been resurrected I wanted to share my experience with Antenna Farm as well. (Sorry for beating a dead horse but I feel the need to share.)
I've orderd twice from them, and will never again do business with them. I've never had to deal directly with their customer service (thankfully) but I can confirm the slow ship time. Both of my orders took 7 days to ship to Alabama. Paying $10 for shipping at that slow rate is too high, in my opinion.
My first order was an antenna, and while it did take a week to get here, it was a good product and arrived in good shape.
However, my second order was for a Kenwood microphone. Antenna Farm was the only place online I could find this particular part number so I ordered it from them. When it arrived (7 days later) I was shocked at the package at my doorstep. This mic was supposed to be new (in the box) and was supposed to come with the mic, hanging clip, and mounting hardware. What I received was a shipping envelope with a loose mic inside. No bubble wrap, no plastic covering the mic, no hanging clip, and no hardware. It's as if they pulled just the mic out of the box and stuck it in an envelope. The only thing that stopped me from shipping it right back to them was the fact that the mic works, had no visible damage, and I didn't need the mounting hardware. Even though everything worked, I will NOT ever shop somewhere that is too cheap to send me a new product in the OEM package.
Bottom line, don't shop at Antenna Farm.
