just because you can get good things cheap on ebay, doesn't mean that it's a scam...

for a good cheap dischounted car audio place....

www.thewholesalematrix.zoovy.com

i ordered a deck from ther for me and then one for my friend shortly there after, great shipping, great communication...and also great product for cheap...you still have the warrenties so there is nothing to worry about by going through ebay...

I don't know why you people are saying that it is a scam....you guys must of had a bad experience with that....which that would have been one time...especially for ebay, they aren't scams...you just have to use your brain a little bit and have that knowledge to be able to pick the scams from the ones that are real...

and if you're calling that website i put up a scam....you can't even do that cause you haven't dealt with them....that's like judging food without trying it....you can't do it...

I believe what he is talking about, are the guys that sell "information" on how to buy headunits and such for rock bottom prices. One example is a auction for a booklet that tells you how to get W7's for $100. THOSE are scams.

To hi2nr, Alpine is much better than AudioBahn or MA Audio...those two companies arent anywhere near Alpine, JL, or Eclipse as far as quality and reliability goes.

The websites provided so far have cheap equipment, other options are to search google for "wholesale car audio" that usually brings up some good prices, also, many ebay auctions are indeed legit. Just keep in mind, any products purchased on ebay or the internet usually do not carry the manufacturer warranty.

Those "discount" alpine decks are DHD decks, some cheap *** brand that's a poor knockoff of alpines. If you dont know anything about car audio, you prob dont know better, so that could explain some of the positive feedback

http://www.thewholesalematrix.zoovy.com

...are not a cheap *** brand that's a poor knockoff of alpine's...the decks that The Wholesale Matrix has are all real, and completely brand new...AND you still get the manufacture's warrenty with it...I bought a clarion from there, I even contacted clarion and asked them about it...and as long as i keep the reciept that shows that i bought it and have that piece of paper that says 1-year warrenty....it's good...
