Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Larry W, who writes with the following tip:
Thomas, this isn’t a deep discount, but the Tecsun PL-310ET price has fallen to $40 even on Amazon. It usually floats around $42-43. Price includes shipping. You might wish to post because this is a lot of “bang-for-buck” when it comes to performance. I own two of them. One stays in the glove compartment of my truck, the other in my travel bag (I’m a professional road warrior). They’ve 20 in stock right now. Price can change anytime.
I would really like to see how the 310et compares to the 390 since they have many of the same features with the 390 having another speaker and about $15-20 more. And sensitivity of each with only the whip antennas…
Thanks for the hint. I love the 310ET – the Tecsun I use most probably – and taken the jump for a spare one to give away for Christmas.
Doesn’t ship internationally unfortunately 🙁 (at least not to Australia)
Non US residents need not apply.
Jason,
But Anon-Co offers free worldwide shipping for this radio and the price is $40.85 USD.

Wow–thanks for mentioning this, Troy! A great option for those outside the US.
Wow great find, thanks for the link.
I just bought one. Going to be interesting to compare this, the CCrane Skywave and the CCrane Skywave SSB side by side. I might throw in a few other radios when I go to a rural area in January.
No problem Jason. Despite living in the USA, I always check Anon-Co. They offer free worldwide shipping on many (but not all) products, their customer service (Anna) is top-notch (none better) and I usually receive my orders in about a week.
Enjoy the new radio!
I have to echo what Troy has said. I’ve been purchasing from Anon-Co since 2007 or 2008. Anna is knowledgeable, always follows through and offers overall amazing customer service. She really knows her products, too.
BTW Jason, I pointed out an error in the U.S. Amazon listing of the radio a week or so ago – see the comments section under this post: https://swling.com/blog/2017/10/discounted-new-tecsun-pl-310et-receivers-on-amazon/
This radio does not have SSB (the Anon-Co listing is correct, the Amazon listing is incorrect). Despite this, at a $40-$42 price range it is still great bang-for-the-buck & a very highly rated receiver.
