DAK is *NOT* the company that advertises junk (trash) jewelry. They have a very interesting catalog that shows a lot of electronic items with audio/security/telephone/medical/computer applications. 2. I have ordered several items from this company. The merchandise is honestly described and pictured, and of good quality. I have returned some items and received a courteous refund. In order to receive a refund from them, you "return the product to us prepaid and insured, in new unmarked condition with all its original parts, instructions, packing boxes and our original invoice (or a copy) within 30 days when you receive it." If the original instructions, boxes, etc. are not returned with the merchandise, DAK will levy a charge for replacing these items ($15 maybe?), so that the item may be resold. This seems like a legitimate charge to me. I have found this to be an honest and businesslike company marketing fascinating electronic items, and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone who is interested in their products. This is an unsolicited testimonial; I have no relatives, friends, acquaintances, enemies, or other types connected with the company. My dealings with this company have been very satisfactory, and I want to present the other side of the story to the net. Lotta Stallman ... mhuxh!hlhop!ljs
