I can't use the same code twice.. so the best I can do is 14 each.. still not bad.
maybe they fixed that glitch just now? did some of you run through two separate orders and the coupon worked both times?

All colors are now out of stock, LOL. At least I was able to get my third order in but not fourth :(

Stupid question if I ordered three of the same model, and they're all on the same channel/frequency/subcode all three can be used at the same time, right?

Oh well guys/gals it was fun while it lasted.

Anyone who has not used the Amazon Electronics $15 off coupon, can you try and add $50 of DVDs to your cart and see if you can use the coupon? Thanks.

DealSpree....

Thanks for the HU on this one. Nice find.

Too bad they went out of stock so fast.

:(

Also.. note that only (3) $30 rebates per address.

The GOOD news is that the rebates are good for purchase till June 30, 2001!!!!! So I would place the orders even though they are out of stock! You will probably see your radio's back in .... well before Christmas.

Rossman, yes I did get the 325's. Also, yes you can use any number in conjunction with each other. You don't need pairs.

I ordered a pair of the 325s last week. If I had known the $15 coupon worked for only $50, I could have placed 2 seperate orders and saved an extra $15 :frown: These are excellent radios, btw. I have a friend that paid $90 for each of his.

My question: anyone know of a good headset for these? The ones that fit over one ear like what plantronics makes for pcs and cell phones? I don't like the clip on mike with earbud, you have to hold the mike to your mouth, which defeats the purpose. If it wasn't cost prohibitive I would buy a plantronics headset and attach the proper size jacks, which I am pretty sure would work.

If you look on any of the Panasonic radio pages, you will notce at the bottom they list a headset just like the kind you want.

Oh well, missed this one [both are out of stock], but there's another possibility.

V-Tech radio
Buy two, add a book to boost it over $50, use the code, and it should be about $15 for them both after two $10 rebates (limit 10 per household so there's no problem there). They are an ugly purple, but there ya go. ;)

Any idea what's going on? When I attempt to order I get the error "You can only use one promotional coupon with your order." I have one preorder on file for another product and have never used this coupon. I even tried with my wife's email and setup a new account. What's the deal? Thanks.

Thanks for the reply sygyzy, but I was referring to something a little more like the plantronics mobile phone headsets, like this:
http://www.us.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=10229972&loc=101

The large headset offered by panasonic would not fit under bike helmets, nor be comfortable while hiking. The small over-the-ear headsets, however, are so light and comfortable, and allow hands-free usage. The fact that they can be used on the motorola frs radios is almost incentive enough to drop $100+ I have a feeling many of the frs units have rebates because the industry has adopted the 2.5mm plug standard. Units like the panasonic have seperate jacks for mike and speaker, which makes no sense since both signals can be carried on one wire.
