[Elecraft] I wonder how many folks have had buyers remorse on a K3/K3S purchase?

[Harry Yingst via Elecraft]

I personally don't like that sculpted look, I like the No nonsense look of the K3.Some of the flashy ones are downright goofy looking (those radios look like toys).

That being said. I have no regrets with the K3, it's a nice radio and does what I need it to do.

I've spent a lot more with Elecraft than  I originally planned, much of that is due to their service after the sale.
I really don't mind spending money with a company knowing they will stand behind their product.

This is true for some people, but many folks can't get past the looks of a rig. 

A "well-known" ham in Nevada likes to get on 75 meters and when the subject of the K3 he once owned (for just a few days) comes up, he loves to retell the reasons why he got rid of it. "It looked like it was put together with chewing gum," -- which is his way of saying that the cabinet, knobs and lights don't have that cool, sculpted, flashy look. For a lot of appliance operators, these things are very important. "Eye candy," I think they call it.
