This dealer is making over $2k profit on the table. He's being a chazer. And you knw what they say about pigs? They get slaughtered.
In the county where I live there no longer are any hifi dealers. We had one- carried excellent gear too. But he nickel and dimed customers, collected sales tax on magazines (not taxable in my state) lied to at least one customer i know who had a cd player ( bought from this store for $2k) that needed repair (he said it was not repairable) and offered to sell him another cd player (the cd payer was fixed by a tech who found one bad solder joint) and drove himself out of business. I was glad to see his store go.
