Hi Guy.

Thanks for the helpful information about the "Geo-Ship" services for American purchasers.

Your information is especially timely now that the XHDATA D-808 seller in my original message has already sold out his limited stock of the original D-808 models at the bargain $ 75 price. After my message was posted he sold 6 models within 24 hours :-)

Gary, am not a Costco member but would rejoin. Does this package have a particular designation to insure it would be the same as yours?

Hi Chris,

<<< Gary, am not a Costco member but would rejoin. Does this package have a particular designation to insure it would be the same as yours?

Yes, Chris, it is the "Aston at Poipu Kai" package on Hawaii's Kauai Island. The 6 day, 5 night package for two travelers includes round trip airfare from Seattle (nonstop both ways) on Delta Airlines, accommodation in the newer 2-BR condos very close to the beach (with a large open patio area for DXing), a full-sized rental car and a $ 50 Costco cash card for the total price of $ 2,396.27. Some details on the package are pasted below, including our flight from Seattle to Lihuie, Kauai. Hope that you can join us!

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,
