I just got mine and put it on. It looks great 
He sent me a message back and said the same thing about working on a new design. He also mentioned he had received a message from another member here and was thinking about becoming a supporting vendor.
I only noticed a difference of reception in places I had already had reception issues. It just made them a little more noticeable.

huh maybe you can scrap off the white or something. Well I have been in contact w/ the seller and am talking to him about getting them for wholesale so I can sell them to the people here. Also could work on the cheaper shipping to Canada. I had to wait to write him back today as he was out of town for the holiday, I will keep you guys posted. No to figure out what I need to do/is needed if I want to be a supporting vendor. Otherwise we have the classified section.

Well, thanks to this thread, I just bought the 5" CF retractable stubby! . It'll look MUCH better than the "R/C Car" antenna, and I love CF anyway.

What is wrong with some of these eBay sellers? Shipping rates of some of these guys to Canada really piss me off. I do enough buying and selling to know what is a reasonable shipping price and what is unreal. $10.95 shipping for something that will cost less then $5 to ship for this antenae. Just loses them sales in the long run.

Nope sorry I don't buy it. The shipper has to use all those items to ship it within the US as well. Shipping should not be that much more to Canada. I have over 400 ebay transactions and I have a very good idea of what shipping an item between the two country's should cost. $4.95 to ship within the US but an additional $6 to send it to Canada makes no sense at all. As I said I am pretty good at haveing an Idea of what an item will cost to ship I am willing to bet it is not $6 more. Shipping times do not worry me and I do not care how long it takes, I just refuse to be ripped off on shipping. Customs paperwork is also a big bit of bunk. It takes one minute to write out what the item is, even less if you do it on Paypal and ship from your PC with their service. As I said I have bought and shipped enough items to have an idea of what is fair.
