yes i did and had no problem had good prices too
 
I've purchased several things from them, most times it's been in stock and they shipped it right out. Only had one thing that was back order but I knew that before I placed the order. They sent me out email's updating about the status.

yes ..2907n2 with e chip included .. radio was flawless and was shipped and at my door in 4 days
How do you find the 2970 n2 it's the radio I hope to buy next year as I shoot skip and need extra power I currently use a barefoot 2950 dx and struggle to hold a conversation unless conditions are real good

Yes I had the same problem ,ordered 2 radios after confirming they were in stock. They put one on back order and ship the other without checking with me.Would have cost me another 80 bucks so I cancelled the order and got a full refund.
 
i wish they told I would have to wait that long before I ordered the radio ,
i have a radio ordered a lescomm galaxy 959 with the lescomm board modded recieve and a magnum sx 350 power cabinet, this radio was supposed to be done already just for sale, ill wait its not gi joes this guy is impressive but its slow, i understand it drives me crazy too

ok where did you purchase yours and what power can you put out at full

lol i bought it at go joes… right now it dead keys 50 watts and swings to 180-200
before i had it tuned to half power she would heat up FAST….out of the box it was set up way too high… but my cb tech tuned it for rag chewing … that being said when using this beast I'm ALWAYS mindful of the temp.
skip searcher this radio never fails me call out once and you get a call back .
but this radio is set way too high out of the box …
a guy in NW indiana (best tech i ever met ) tuned mine and the sound is amazingly clean and clear ….and the ears are amazing i have heard people say they are noisy !!
i say have someone else tune it !!!!!!! and it will be amazing
