First class company Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have known -- but am not associated with -- the RF Parts guys and their Diamond Antenna operation for over 10 years. They are all knowledgable and people of integrity.

Power tubes are getting harder and harder to source since there are few US made available. But the RF Parts approach of testing and "weeding out" before they ship greatly improves your odds when you do have to go Asian. And they stand behind their stuff very well if you do have any issues. Best anyone can do when we're forced to use non American stuff.

Really Fantastic Time Owned: more than 12 months.
This is a class act. The people at RF Parts are very nice people, the products are exactly as they describe, their packing is top notch, and they carry a really interesting line of products at fair prices.

I have been buying my transmitting tubes and other RF parts - such as doorknob capacitors from them for about 10 years - and they have always been great.

Reliable, good, vendor Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have purchased tubes and electronic components from them 4 times over about 4 years. I have zero complaints; they ship promptly, tell you what they do or don't have in stock. If you are looking for vacuum tubes, RF Parts is possibly the BEST supplier out there. From what I can tell they seem to have good customer service.

I consider them one of the better suppliers out there.

Good Quality, Fair Prices & Fast Shipping Time Owned: more than 12 months.
How can you possibly downgrade RF PARTS because Euro-Mail is slow? (A recent Priority Mail package of mine took FIVE WEEKS to get to France!)

As for RF PARTS, they are doing the HAM community a great service by selling quality parts at reasonable prices and fair shipping charges. I have bought from them many times in the past and am completely satisfied with thier service

Good value for money parts - Shipping to Europe needs attention Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I recently ordered some transistors to repair my beloved Icom IC-703.

I was unable to source these with resonable cost from Europe so decided to order from RF Parts.

Total time taken from receiving payment of my order to shipping was 18 days!

(To be fair there is a disclaimer on the site that does advise that European orders will suffer a delay of 8-12 days)

Once the parcel was received in the UK there was a further 4 day delay for the parcel to clear customs.

Total time from order to collection (After paying nearly £12 extra as a result of £3.81 V.A.T) 36 days!

I have ordered goods from Asia that have arrived at my door within 4 working days, and cannot understand how this transaction was so slow.

That said, I would certainly consider ordering again from this company.

Very fine service. Time Owned: N.A.
I have ordered a replace RF final for my Icom 706 MK IIG, after an email contact with RF Parts I find the item at half price than in Europe.
Fast shipping, also without insurance and tracking I have the RF final in my hands in 15 days.
I strongly recommend the RF Parts service.

Great Service Supplier Time Owned: more than 12 months.
Honest parts supplier ... if they say it's in stock, it's in stock and you'll get the shipment when they say you will. Excellent source of tubes. Highly recommended.

A+ quick ship Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
as with all reviews these days enay is kinda a benchmark ...
rf parts emailed me back and said the order was
placed so i emailed them back and asked for a tracking number
that arrived shortly
i have been a consumer electronics servicer for 20 years ...shack ..best buy ...circuit
these people are responsive and the product is in stock as advertised on their website
nothing pisses off people like me more ...
order a part on the website with no inventory or get a hold on 800
i did order a mitsu vhf brick and it did ship asap...
thats all i wanted... was a part or a response telling me that the part wasnt available
good communication from this company .. thats why ive heard good things about them over the years
