I ordered two ZX620 AM/FM, one from Banggood and one from eBay. In both cases I got the ZX623 AM/SW even though the listings clearly showed the ZX620. Banggood refunded me in full and with the eBay seller I asked for the correct radio. Instead I was also offered a full refund.
There seems to be confusion amongst the sellers of these radios. Only Aliexpress has got it right as they are listing the ZX623 and the 620 as unavailable.

Totally agree, I find the whole process very therapeutic and a working set is a bonus.
