Is this a legit listing?

I'm going to get a Boston G3 12" dual coil, and I find them all over the internet, but literally every single place selling them has them in the mid 300 dollar range, while I found this one listing (and only 1 available) from Sonicelectronix on ebay for half the price. I know sonic has good reviews and is a well liked company, I just wanted to get some feedback from you guys on this purchase. Is there a chance that there's something wrong with it, or do you think it's a pricing error? On sonicelectronix.com they are selling the same sub for twice the price.

Check it out and let me know. Thanks for any feedback!

It's legit. $300 is retail price, I just bought the same exact sub from Audiosavings on Ebay for $145. They had it listed as $159 or make offer. Listed as New not Refurbished which is what you are looking at, sub came in perfect condition with original box and everything. Same as I am looking at the JL Audio 10w6 listed for $449 through Crutchfield and other retailers, but shopping online and can get them all day for $289. Just shows the insane markup some places have. BTW the BA G3 is a great sub.

No problem, and if you haven't bought it yet you can get it from Audio Savings for atleast $145. They have them on Ebay as well. Just offer them like $135 and they will counter back. Lowest I could get them to go was $145 which was fine by me.

For some reason Boston has jacked up the prices of all of their subs. If you look hard enough you should still be able to find G3s for under $200. They are great subs, very close to the G5. They will handle a good 2x the rated power as long as its clean and unclipped. I love my G5s.

edit: just google boston acoustics g3 12 and click the shopping tab then sort by total price
