Is that a deal? Does that look reputable to you? I don't think I've ever seen a sub with free shipping on E-bay, let alone that low of a price for a Type R Shipped. Is that a scam or an incredible deal? If it's on the level I might go buy it right now lol. The Comp VR is looking like a lost cause at this point //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Is a good deal if it is free shipping.

Why are the Kicker Comp VR's out of the question? I'd personally rather have the VR's, a friend of mine has two VR's with 300 watts to each ina box tuned to 35 and it's freaking ridiculous for two 60 dollar 12's, to be quite honest

$120/shipped isn't a terrible price at all. I don't know anything about that specific seller having never done any business with them before, but a quick browse through his feedback profile (both received and given) leads me to reckon he's on the up and up.

I've seen several different items (subs included) on eBay before that had free shipping. I did some business with TheZeb through eBay before they apparently lost their collective mind and went bust - IIRC those items had free shipping if purchased at the BIN price.

Master Grubbs I was saying they were out because I can't find anyone who got them shipped and has some left over to sell from the Sound Domain deal. I couldn't find any cheap ones on E-Bay. Considering I could have gotten one for 49$ or so paying 120$ + shipping is pretty disheartening. Would the CVR actually be louder than the Type R off that low wattage?
