Cobra store on ebay has Cobra 29 Refurbished for $79. I bought one a while back and it works great. I feel this is a good price for the Chinese made version. I just bought a couple more to have on hand to give away etc. I would not pay full price for these, I would buy a Texas Ranger 936 instead. These 29s are still through hole, so all the mods are easily done. Perfect for someone learning to modify radios.
