i know it seems like it's not legit...BUT

i was looking at these 2 ads:

http://mobile.craigslist.org/tag/1018605671.html

http://mobile.craigslist.org/ele/1018950683.html

and i emailed the guy first. then i thought about it and called. talked to dude and we plan to meet up after i get off work. BUT then i get a reply to the email saying they are both available.

my question here is... am i (A) gonna show up and get robbed (B) show up, get both for $200 and get home and the box was stuffed w/ BS © get a crazy good deal on 2 BNIB systems?

how does a guy get these as a "gift" and then sell them so fcking cheap? i say either he is stealing them, or has a helluva hook up somewhere. this seems shady to me though. but i'm going to go find out!! LAWL

Take someone with you to avoid a robbery. Check the boxes before you give him money to avoid getting robbed.

Only problem is if they dont seem to work.

Yeah, bring someone that can fight, or has a knife (or gun if you live in Texas), and make sure you look in the boxes and make sure everything is in there.

i plan to open it all. i could actually hook it all up in my car seeing as i have a power inverter and an AV input for my screen. lol

as for the cheap part. some people just really need the drug money and will sell shit cheap as hell. ive gotten lawn mowers, snow blowers,tvs,etc for 20 bucks a bunch of times.

idc if it's stolen to be honest. i'm taking them home and they will become part of my ever expanding HT setup. i'm not planning to sell them. as long as the systems are legit, and i don't get robbed this seems like a good deal //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
