Wow! Props to Nick.

Now if he could fix the shipping issues that people have so many issues with!

FWIW, I have gotten a few parts from him for various projects, and he's been very sensitive at the shipping timeframes at my request.

Again, I'm neither supporting nor indorsing, just chucking out my $0.02.

But you have to wonder about this statement:
****Special consideration may be given to locations in Canada at the Seller's discretion. If this is the case, please email before you bid

Sounds like he has been stiffed by our neighbors to the North...

I don't think that's Nick, aka: Wathcbuddy. Check the feedback and you'll see that he has only bought on E-bay and NEVER sold anything. Beware....

Looks like his flashcode won't do conventional repeater operation - you need that for ICALL and ITAC channels, if you are involved in LE/Fire ops, etc.

Hmmmm, I wonder why my state XTS3000 has the conventional in it, as well as Smartzone and Omnilink?

Good Moto salesman?

Shaun, are you and Nick nice-nice again? He still hates me and he still insists on giving me his cash when I would give him the shirt off my back.
Nice guy, he just wont talk to me anymore. I am glad to see updates being brought in.
Including your recently taken photo.

Write one, but remember there is a limit on how much the prison will let you spend every week.
