Life is FULL of disappointments. It isn't always clear who you can do business with, and online reviews are a bit hit and miss in my experience.
This section will detail those that impressed me, and those that did not.
If you find yourself here, and you don't like what I wrote, SUE ME. I'm so sick of being told that "I should have thought about that before" whilst the same rule seemingly doesn't apply to others.
Refunds, sponsorships, threats. I don't care, It's not coming down.
I have suffered and suffered with a cheap aftermarket lead for Kenwood radios that had about 5 leads coming out of a single USB to serial converter. The other day it finally gave up the ghost, so I decided to buy a pair of genuine cables for Kenwood mobiles and handsets.
I had a look around and found Radio-Shop.UK.
Easy to navigate ✅
Prices shown on the website ✅
Good range of stock (including the obsolete cable I wanted) ✅
Quick and simple to order ✅
I ordered on a Sunday, and on Monday morning they contacted me to tell me that the specific cable I was after was actually totally discontinued, but not to worry because they sourced the replacement part number and sent that instead, at no extra cost, despite it being a more expensive part.
No funny stuff. The leads arrived quickly in unblemished factory boxes.
If you need some kit you could do a LOT worse. Couldn't recommend enough.
