Default Anyone bought from ETronics.com before?

I just found the Alpine 9813 CD/MP3 Player on ETronics.com for $299. Looks like a solid price to me considering Cruthfield sells it for $399. Has anyone bought from them before?? Sounds almost too good to be true.

Thanks,

PJ

i bought my alpine 7894 from them, it was brand new in the box, also came with the warranty card, which alpine accepted. YMMV, but they are legit. crutchfield is a 100% authorized dealer, which is why they charge msrp. you need to ask yourself if that guarantee is worth the extra $100.

i love the sound of focal, but you need to listen to speakers and decide yourself. you'd be amazed by how different speakers in that price range sound.

i use the focal 165k myself, out of your pricerange but focal do have some speakers that fit your budget. but again try to listen to some stuff. in that price range i also like diamond audio.

Haven't needed to buy anything from them, but their prices are awesome.

PJK3,

Thanks for the reply!

How does that tweeter location sound to you??

I really wish someone in my area had an S2K I could listen to with aftermarket tweeters.

I recently purchased a underwater housing from them. They told me it would fit my camera, but upon receipt I found it would not. I have been trying to get an RMA # for more than a week with no luck. I have sent emails to service@etronics.com , called their 800 number and talked to them where they said they would email me the RMA# and return instructions - still no RMA number.

I will admit that they have low prices and pick and ship quickly - just wish they would issue my RMA# just as fast.
