I have no need, no intention and no desire to sell any of my Tentec radios. Now as to the other brands, I sold them some weeks ago at a significant loss. Those included a K3 and a TS-590.

If you try to sell a used Omni VII this week for $2400 or so you may be in for a surprise.

The value of my radios is exactly the same this week as it was last week. Only the replacement cost has changed.

This is an important message to share. RF Concepts may be asking Jim Wharton to test the waters on the volume based model for sales under the auspice of their planned summer sale.

Of course this killed some of the value of my radios, but it is what it is!

Hmmmmm… I paid $10,500 each for my Alpha 9500 amplifiers, and immediately after being bought out by RF Concepts, they lowered the price to $6900.00. Now, Ten-Tec has been acquired by RF Concepts.

If you want to increase volumes, lower the price! Increased volumes lead to lower production costs. Properly played you get higher sales, and more importantly, better overall margins.

Brilliant move!

Wow, that sure is a sale. Maybe some of the Ten Tec guru's can explain but this sure doesnt make sense from a business perspective to me. Knocking a grand off the Omni VII. 800 off the eagle and 300 off a Agro. I wish I was in the market for a new rig. Kinda scary though and makes me wonder about the future. Seems like a 'fire' sale. Just sayin.......Shoots the heck out of the used market for those trying to sell eagles and omni's.
