$2,500? Thats nothing. $2,500 wont even pay for batteries.
I know people who have refinanced the mortgage on their house to build a bigger system. When 155db on music just isnt enough... You need to be closer to that 160!

Its an addiction.

2500 buys my batteries, thank god for street //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif granted, i then had to buy a CRX so i guess that evens it out (since i bought a good one, no rust ftw)

ive been debt on and off since i started with car audio. right now im $500 in the hole for a d3 and a xxx10,000 (my dad covered me on the difference and im paying him off.) the d3 i owe about 300 on to a shop owner where i help out. i've spent about $5,000 so far on it and i've only been doing it a year and im 18. i wont eat to pay for car audio. mabe i should have taken up drugs it would have been cheaper.

if anyone wants my story i will be published through penguin publishing co. books will be paperback and cost $4.99 USD.

I have debt but not because of CA

I buy things when i have extra money or set aside money to buy things in the future... Like i got into an accident like 6 years ago and still get monthly payments on it. It all goes into a savings account and when i wanna buy a new car i got a nice down payment on one.

 

I put my first real system on a credit card and ended up paying like $250 more(interest) than it actually cost. From that point on it wasn't worth it, i only put gas/groceries on my credit card and pay it off every month.

Only thing I've ever charged was my fiancee's engagement ring...other than that, I buy car audio when I have the money to.

I sometimes have fallen in debt for overbuying car audio... ***** but sometimes you cant pass on deals...

What good is a deal if you end up overpaying due to interest?

Yes, you can pass on ANY deal.

Good thing you didn't waste the money on interest.

Yes, you can pass on ANY deal.

x2 i learned the hard way at a ripe age of 18, and w/ a 19% interest rate that great deal turns into you getting ripped off. That was the only/last time i charged anything car audio wise to a credit card. Everything i buy now comes directly out of my account.

Back in the day I did quite a bit of charging just to have a nicer car, bigger/louder stereo and what not. I learned my lesson the hard way though.

If I don't have the cash for something, I just don't get it now. Haven't charged anything going on 2 years now, lol!
