This morning, I received an email from C.Crane with a link to their Black Friday Sale:
Admittedly, I was a little underwhelmed when I discovered the sale only included four items: a stereo Bluetooth speaker, LED spotlight, headphones and ear buds:
I was hoping they’d include their excellent CC Skywave in the sale, but it doesn’t seem they plan to include any radios at this point.
Admittedly, I’m tempted by their Senta-40 Wooden Headphones–$25 is a great price. If you have a set of the Senta-40s, please comment–perhaps I should grab a set?
I’ve been a little disappointed in C. Crane in general. They used to have a fabulous selection of really interesting radios and radio related products, both their own and those of other companies. Now they don’t even carry a single full-sized shortwave radio, the Gozo disappeared, and the whole range of products seems to have shrunken. I’ve been receiving their printed catalogs for ten or twelve years, and finding a new one in the mailbox was always something to get excited over. Not now. Are they down-sizing, going out of business, or what?
