Frank,
What I think it is that some people think since you do not buy from a HiFi or Mom and PoP stereo shop and pay original MSRP w/ rarely any sales/bargains is the great deal! Funny thing about an weekago I went to an mom and pop HiFi store that carried Phase Technology speakers and got to listen to them and was willing to buy them,, I asked if he can give me a little discount if I was to buy an package deal and they said they can’t due to business is slow and they DO NOT SELL BY VOLUME so they have to sell by HIGH retail price. So I walked out.
But anyways if there’s people say that purchasing equipment at stores like Best Buy or CC says there cheaply made I think are pathetic for the ones that think that!
If these people know anything about business or how Best Buy works they purchase equipment by VOLUME and can sell at an lower price which makes it an great buy! I do not think JBL, SONY, BOSE and YAMAHA which BEST BUY carries is NOT cheap!! You just get a better price on it then at an local HiFi shop/store.
As a matter a fact I seen the exact same 42" Toshiba HDTV selling at Mom and Pop Hifi store for $1899.00 no financing available and then at Best Buy they got the same identical for HDTV for $1699.00 w/ 0% apr for 24 months. Now who is the sucker that would get it for $1899.00 @ Mom and Pop HiFi store and not Best Buy? That tells you who the bad shopper is!
I totally agree with Frank on this
