i can almost here it now......"how come no one in canada wants to service my ebay stuff?.......how come no one is hosting a show anymore?.....how come it's hard..."

cause you dont support to local dealers.....thats why. so stop asking...funny how internet buying is awesome......especially when it is a fraction of cost....well you buy something for a fraction of cost its worth a fraction of cost...

If you can sell me an amp at a cost that is close to what it would cost me on Ebay, then I will buy it from you. I would even consider it if it's $50-$100 above the total cost of buying on ebay (after ship/brokerage/tax) If not, then what is your point?

I'm asking other "users" for advice, not really "sponsors". I was PM'd by a sponsor I went to check it out but damn, for that money I can get something MUCH better on Ebay even after shipping, and brockerage and tax.

I understand about supporting the sponsors but honestly..it has to be WORTH it for me to support you. I'm not going to spend a couple hundred extra just to say I bought it from a sponsor of the board....

I mean, I'm not saying that 100% I will buy on E-bay, it's just so much easier to browse and look at specs and features etc.

I'll for sure look at all my options before dropping some cash on an amp.

But thats what we are saying. Mine and the other Sponsor's stuff is brand new not re-furb, stolen, demo, broken, and/or used. That MA audio amp is $100 under the DEALER cost which means its being dumped. You will get what you pay for. EBAY is full of scammers. In the end dude its your money and it's roughly going to cost you $450 bucks canadian to get that peice to your door all said and done. Sometimes it comes cheaper and sometimes its more depending on how the paperwork is done. And if its worth it to you not to spend the extra $100-200 for support and warranty then so be it. But if its dies and they have no warranty, to buy a second one to replace it, now your over the Canadian cost. Not to mention that you also have to pay for shipping back if you try to get warranty and sometimes they charge you all the good duties and brokerage and so on again if the paperwork is not right again. End of the day its your choice and your money and nothing is going to change your mind. Im sure when I speak for all the vendors when we hate to see board members get taken. Thats all. And BTW you said your not spending the extra couple of hundred dollars to say you bought is from a sponsor. Its for the support, warranty, and buying factory fresh brand new equipment.

I'm not sure why you keep talking about the MA audio, as I would probably not go for that model, rather the Alpine or one of the Phoenix Golds which are new. I just listed it in there.

I was just looking for some advice, different then vendors who will obviously push their own products, to see what was a good amp. Then I can price shop.

If a Vendor can convince "I.E. Sell me" on buying an amp from them rather then on E-bay, then I'll for sure consider it. Your points and others are valid.

it is nice to see whats out there on ebay / it is good to know what i can get /but if it is NFG when you get it what do you do ?

$1.10cnd=$1usd + 10%shipping +customs+ + + fixing +=it work out to be less at a shop (but know what you are buying #1st )

Yeah, I can see that. That's only if it breaks though, but then you're probably screwed.
