I'm hearing that there was a pre-order? How'd I miss it??

 

[dragwindsor]

My bad. I found the pre-order. Unfortunately..........they want $300 to ship them.

Sorry for making all this noise about these gnarly subs, looks like I waited for nothing.

they seriously want 300 for this sub? And the pre-order hasn't been posted on CA.com?

 

[dragwindsor]

I've been waiting for the post too. It's up on EMF. They want $209 each. Worked out to be $475 for the pair, PLUS $300 for shipping. Sorry, but I can't pay $800 for a pair of 8's...

Lol there must be something wrong here. I will definitely buy an X-8 or two at that price, but no way shipping costs 150 per sub. somebody typo'd the fack out of that.

That $418 turned into $475 after PayPal exchange. I'm straight with that.

Wtf, is it really that much for shipping??? Can I just pay and drive and pick my ish up?! For **** sure wont cost 300 to drive an hour n a half

 

[pacmannbass]

I actually just checked and there is a free shipping option with paypal. Not sure how long it would take but being Im in cali and if the emf spot is in la it shouldnt take long to get to me. A few days

Well, I live in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. It's 1 (one) mile from Detroit. It's free to ship to Detroit, but $300 to travel the extra mile.

ahh, free shipping to me in texas.

Hmm, I really don't NEED one of these but when has 'need' ever affected a car audio purchase? Any idea how long the pre-order runs? I can't believe Jacob didn't post anything about it...lol

Hey man, I'm on the other side of the river in Royal Oak (only about 10min north of Detroit on I75). You could ship em here and just come pick em up. Just shoot me a PM if your interested.

 

[dragwindsor]

Dang. Thanks for the offer bro, but I don't have my passport yet. Arghh!

Looks like that pre-order on EMF has been up since at least mid-March with an original ship date of April 7th. Sounds like it's not all that official and they just jumped the gun with selling pre-orders...

Maybe we can get Jacob to comment? @sundownz ;
