that is really one for the books mon. Did you notice any hidden camera around? Sounds definitely like something from PUNK,D
No cameras around.. .then something must have been definitely wrong... wise choice....
good thing he did not kidnap you..... (might have been thinking of it and changed his mind)... had to justify why he stopped after though........ so the story with the theatre set...........heheheheheeeeeeeeee
Still think you were being punked or something mon..................sure is crazy

I've heard of people selling speakers in this manner and they end up being hollow shells weighted down.
Who in their right mind would swap a Home Theatre system for a few beers?
I might if the beer in question was dripping from the cleavage of a long line of naked nymphomaniac glamour models who had been sex starved for a couple of years. Would depend on whether i had a decent DVD to watch that night or not.

Thats funny. It happened to me a while back at the grocery store parking lot. I was using my girlfriends car to go fill up the fridge. As I got out these 2 kids (18ish) in an SUV pulled up to me and gave me the story that they had some extra home theater systems from their deliveries and they wanted to get rid of them before going back to the shop. They even told me to open the box and check out the stuff. I thought about it for a few minutes and told them to beat it. They were def some hustlers though.

Van sales were rampant here for a while. It was always speakers or some crap. I think a lot of it has moved to eBay. There are tons of CHEAP speakers and $100 home theaters that look like top line stuff and even have cool names. Check these out...
* 440 watts maximum power
* 310 watts RMS power
* 180 watts sine wave power
* 4-8 ohms impedance
* 20-20,000Hz frequency response
* 3-way column floor-standing speaker pair
* Removable cover frame
* Bass reflex design
These babies can be shipped to your door for $90

Well believe it or not, but some people really are that stupid, can you believe it? some people are willing to give something big for either nothing or a small gesture in return, it's a mad world, why can't everyone just be takers? I prefer the world sick it's more cool.

this is one of the oldest tricks in the books. guys have been selling speakers out of cargo vans for at least 30 years that i know about. all across the country. suprised more of you haven't seen this scam firsthand.
