What about those that buy direct or actually do buy from an authorized dealer online, recommended by the company you are interested in. And you get it for below cost? Anything wrong with That? I don think so.

 

Hi

My first post,but not new to auto electronics or ebay.Be carefull with those "deal" type dealers.Most are warranty returns that these guys buy for pennies.They then resell them as open box,no warrantie,as is!!!! There is a reason for the price.
I learned my lesson about buying certain items from e-bay,forget any help,advice,warrantie etc.Only thing you may get is a cheaper price that will more than likely cost you more in the end!!
Buy from local guys or dealers here with good reps. in the end it will be far cheaper.

Mike
