Well,
Like all of you, I let greed overcome commonsense. Damn!
I'll be kicking myself over this incident for a long time.
My story is similar to many of yours...walking in a shopping
area's parking lot (The Galleria in Rosville, CA), when
I was approached by two young white guys in a SUV. "We
work for a shipping company...accidently received extra
speakers from the shipping department...here's a magazine
article...blah blah blah." I should have known better.
If these speakers were such great deals, why weren't
these two guys giving the items to friends or family,
or selling it on EBay? Bogus claims and bogus advertisement.
Yeah, I bought the speakers and immediately regretted
doing so. I couldn't find the speakers at Best Buy.
Also, I went to Barnes and Nobles, flipped through several
Audio/Video magazines, and was unable to find that article
or magazine the two guys had shown me. After going onto
the internet and typing into google.com "theater logic
home cinema" my worst suspicions were confirmed. I just
got shafted. Anyone else in the Sacramento/Roseville,
CA area get taken by these two? One guys name was Aaron
and I don't remember the other guys. I realize the prospect
is pretty bleak, but I want my $$$ back.
