Buyer beware - before buying any SharfRF product read the TC.

Unethical-Sales-Practices

The prices of the SharkRF products vary wildy recently. I had contact with Akos and Norbert about this and indeed, they both admitted that they use ‘dynamic pricing’. This is a marketing concept, that is quite new and legally still in a greyzone, apart from the USA, where the company ‘LiveNation’, who owns all the concert ticket sales there and in most other countries, use ‘dynamic pricing’ to drive the prices up to unaffordable levels. Live Nation was ordered to pay millions in fines. Here in Australia, the ‘dynamic pricing’ tactic, where the consumer never knows if he/she buys a product for its real price, is currently under investigation after airlines use it to sell tickets for their flights far above the normal level. SharkRF has in their Terms and Conditions that they use Dynamic Pricing, so they are open about it. This does not take away, the the Australian government sees this form of selling products as a major risk to the buyers, and discourages customers to avoid this highly disputing and potentially misleading practice.
As always: buyer beware and know what you get into buying a SharkRF product. These Hungarian guys in Estonia are glass hard sellers of a (good) product and would go over your body to earn a $ more. For them it is not about HAM or radio enthusiasm, but with dubious practices making more and even more money.

Never say I did not warn you.Simpleminds like Micky who could not finish school and only learned in the alleyways to talk in prophanities, are the easiest targets for corporate greed.
Good luck, flying a plane you pay double seat price too. Problem if you never understood maths.
Let yourself rip off by these hungarian-estonian guys. Come a day you will cry tears.

PA3GOQ Hi PA3GOQ, also me I enjoy my Openspot 4 Pro very much, also their website with the instructions is very good, just criticized the way I got it and that is in contravention with Australian customer law. But the product comes from a less law abiding country, so have to to take that into account.. Hope the winter in Ljouwert is not too bad and I remember all too well the snow and ice and scratching my car windows in the morning. Here it is the other extreme, the heat, up to 45 degrees.

micksmith Das Mischen von zwei Sprachen deutet auf eine ganz klare Hirn-abnormalität hin. Die Tatsache das dieser Schwachmann nur Schimpfwörter benutzen kann, sogar auf eine sehr gefährliche Persönlichkeit, oder was dafür durchgehen soll.

Shut up Snowflake, who asked you to chime in go stick your oar in somewhere else, and that would be scraping the windows, not scratching the windows, plonka.

Akos and Norbert have been offering excellent products for a great value. What wrong with their pricing? If you think it is not worth the value simply don't buy it. What is wrong with a free market? What is wrong with earning the most one can for a product. What is the problem? You should just say thank you and go away.

HK3DC its guys like you that spend all your money

HK3DC Mr Codianni, if guys were smart, they would know that the money they spend on the M1KE is not needed but they continue to spend it because they are lazy and don’t understand the technology.
If they want to complain then complain somewhere else. I agree with you. For most of us we have tried the M1KE and it’s great but after using it, you can do the same thing with a network radio. But you are right Sir. he should just go away and let the guys that buy these M1KEs and continue to give their money away because they are lazy and don’t know how to configure a network radio to do the same thing. The network radio has Bluetooth and it has all the other programs you can run on it that the M1KE cannot. It’s laziness and reflects the current wave of new hams or old Timers who have no clue how to use the computer or work with the technology. As long as the Ham radio exams continue to ask old questions about current, capacitors and RF, these guys in Estonia will continue to take the money from Hams who are lazy and don’t understand the technology. So I agree with you. These guys that complain should just go away because they were the stupid ones for buying the product when they could have done it for less than 150 bucks!! Hahahaha!

Hi Digital Voice
You are absolutely correct! My US buddy has a network radio that provides him with more value than a M1ke. You could put in a SIM card, Bluetooth (as you stated), great battery life, much less expensive (as you mentioned), color display, robust construction, ability to make it custom and other pluses. I have used the dvswitch on a raspberry pi server hooked up to Western Digital dongle in Colombia. My Scottish buddy used my server with his phone or an android tablet for over a year without any issues. Heck, I never shut it off. As far as the M1ke, I hang it up with my keys and when I am portable or mobile, I bring it with me. I charge it once a week or after 18 hours of use. At home I use the Kenwood 75 with a UHF DVAP and a Openspot 4 pro. If you ask me to choose between the M1ke vs the Kenwood 75 with DVAP and 4 pro. I would choose .... the M1ke. Just for the convenience of having less: less batteries, less a hot spot, less of a bulkier radio, less money .... MORE VALUE.
