-------------------- Linux Airline Disgruntled employees of all the other OS airlines decide to start their own airline. They build the planes, ticket counters, and pave the runways themselves. They charge a small fee to cover the cost of printing the ticket, but you can also download and print the ticket yourself. When you board the plane, you are given a seat, four bolts, a wrench and a copy of the seat-HOWTO.html. Once settled, the fully adjustable seat is very comfortable, the plane leaves and arrives on time without a single problem, the in-flight meal is wonderful. You try to tell customers of the other airlines about the great trip, but all they can say is, "You had to do what with the seat?" Posts: 2956 | From: Tinley Park | Registered: May 2000

Best deal yet, but how much you pay for the box? Everyone else paid a whole lot more cuz they all bought cars. I don't see the deals there.

Wisited a Norwegian internet auction site and searched for Rockford gear.
Up turned a Auction stating: Rockford Fosgate 15" sub for sale.
I entered and found that one guy had bid 25$ and the auction had a buy it now price for 120$. No pic or specs was aviable so i was going too leave I dont know why but i ended up scrolling all the way down too the bottom of the page and found a question asked buy the only bidder saying: Whats the power rating of the sub? The answer was 2000 Watts.
I did imidiately scroll back up and hit the "buy it now" button figuring that i could atleast complain if this info was false.
A week later i recived a Punch Power DVC woofer called RFR 2215 in a condition best described as new.
Price paid, shipping included was 132$

I bought a Technics 80x5 reciever, 2 Mitsubishi 12" floor standing speakers, 2 8's in a prefab full range box, and an unknown 15 in a sealed box. All that came to a grand total of $50. It isn't the best equipment, but it's hard to beat for $50 for a home stereo system. I ended up using the 8's in the shop while I was working on my car. The 15 make a good night stand, but I've never put power to it. I just thought of the 8s and the 15 as free. Figured the receiver alone was worth the money. Still using it now, but the speakers are in storage since I found a cheap set of 15's that sound as good or better.

I pulled an alarm out of my friends car because he ws trading it in. The car came the alarms when he bought it. I asked if I could look around and see what else was in there, and if I could keep what I found. He said ok, in the doors was a set of boston pro5.4's and the deck was a Nak cd45z. I swaped both for used stuff in the bottom drawer of my tool box.

Ok, It never happened to 'me' but I witnessed it.
My friend jason used to work at a used car dealer. Lots of times they got in a car that had a sick install, or repo'd one that did. "Buy here pay here" (Tthey always kept a spare key until you was paid up.) ANY TIME something like that came in, Frank, the lot manager told him to take the stuff outta there because they didnt want the crap coming back for not working. He racked UP! I mean tons of stuff he took home. His locker was always over crowded, and he always had 3 amps in his trunk. I never understood why things like that happen to people who never can accomplish much with it.
I used to work for a car audio dealer as a sales/installer, so I got decentdeals that way too. (Frown) Nothing cool happens to me.
