anyone actually compared the cary 805c

Cheap packing material
the best boxes in my opinion, ( i was the person who started the anti packing peanuts thread) are computer monitor boxes, or CPU boxes...they are usually triple walled....total overkill....so....you could check behind the CompUSA and find some gems 
If you bought a Linn Karik that arrived DOA..

Packing Peanuts-a waste
Hey Sean, just another close call...luckily the shipper further packed it after getting it back from MBE....the MBE job would have had me calling FEDEX again. 
Non-Buying Buyers-check's in the mail? Yeah Right
i have a person who is a member here who has now committed to 3 pieces of gear here and each time has never sent payment. he is such an idiot that he always forgets who I am...the last time, I told him that before I sell him this piece of gear, I ...

2nd on the Counterpoint SA9, it has the honor of being the Survivor in my system...eveything else has changed over the years with upgrades except the Sa9. It runs my Cardas heart at .25mv. Comes with a separate 55 lb power supply! 
Tubes-are they limited to the circuit used in?

New stuff from spain selling at less then used
isnt there a way to see how long the person has been a member here at Audiogon? It should also list his or her Active disscussions here. He listed an Accuphase amp with warranty, is he a dealer?? guess you could get the SN and see if he is owner o...
