Speaking of shortages, anyone know where I can get a Samsung Terrace 55"? I've tried Wave, and my two local distys.

BTW way, you know times are desperate when you Sonos Amps are selling for over a grand on Ebay in some cases. WTF.

I know there's no location in Colorado anymore, but call Wave. I just got one a couple of days ago, and website say's that have about 10 more available throughout Texas.

Sonos amps... I seen used ones go for $1k plus, and Ports going for $6-8 hundred. Old used Sonos Connect amps are selling for $500 and more.

The educational discount website through Samsung has them for less than our dealer cost. Try logging in and checking that. Here is my screenshot from that education discount once I login. Kids go to school? You qualify.

Ok that's kinda wild. I don't have kids, but for that price I will track one down.

I also don't have any issues with buying some things at retail and making no profit, if it allows me to complete an install and get paid.

Problem is, most of this stuff you can't find retail either. I'm waiting to finish one with 6 amps, and be Sonos or Heos, doesn't matter, and two sound bars, once again, either Sonos ARC or the bigger Denon/Heos. Everything else is done, but the audio part is a big check. Luckily I was able to get paid so far for what I have been able to complete, but I know some guys that have really big checks being held because of stuff like this.

I’m touching on 6 figures being withheld from different projects. Most just missing a Sonos device or AVR…. A few others some misc. items you can’t find at retail.

It’s labor and some change order outstanding but I do 100% of equipment upfront.

Im starting to notice my phone and emails becoming quieter too. Im chalking this up to being word has got out you can’t get product and or it’s the summer time and people are traveling for the first time in 18 months.

Your phone is not ringing because it is always off the hook from your endless butt dials that I keep getting
