Hall of Shame

Vdub and Sedond that scam goes back some and it may have originated in the Sunshine State. I remember a pair of those guys trying that on me back in the late 70's in Orlando. The common elements are white vans, 2 young, enthusiastic guys, large, cheap vinyl clad particle board speakers with very cheap drivers at "bargain basement" prices. Price is very negotiable. "You can fool some of the people most of the time and that's all it takes baby".

Thank you, Sedond!
Hey, maybe the made enough money selling those speakers that they could afford to have the van painted??

Actually, I've been hit up by these guys a number of times over the past 20 years- it's a never-ending scam. As for the van: if these speakers are any indication of their perception of quality, Earl Scheib did the champagne paint job.

Yeah, I been hit by them boys many many times over last 15 years. Recently due to my Car's blaring stereo, and with my long hair, I am a easy target. Although I have a real speakers(Dunlavy V'S)now at home, I used to say the same(" Oh, I already got great speakers") and smirk almost same way when I had $100.0/pair bought-at-clearance Sansui's and later $800.0/pair(yep paid full price and was proud of it)my Cerwin Vega AT-15 just 10 years ago. Boy Have I come a long way!
