I'm sure many of you here in the US have already seen the plethora of interesting B&O items on eBay of late, especially those from a user named "budgetsavers"

http://www.ebay.com/sch/Consumer-Electronics-/293/m.html?item=171631885029&hash=item27f60ebae5&pt=Televisions&_ssn=budgetsavers

Although tempting, the thought of buying as is from across the country, without warranty, is, for me, too big a risk to take, but I thought I'd pass this along to my BeoFriends here who would take that risk. Enjoy. FYI, check out some of the most recent feedback if you're wondering how all these items may have come into this company's possession... maybe flood damage? (I'm referring to one of the recent neutral feedbacks for the Beovision 11)...

Still, some great discounts... I'm looking at you Beolab 9's I'd love to have you, but my nightmare is spending $4000+ and them ending up breaking shortly after receipt. I know, I know, unlikely, but still. When it comes to B&O... I personally wouldn't take that chance.

Enjoy!

I saw that too, the seller has nearly 25,000 feed backs, and nearly 100 % (99 something) positive.

Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.

I'd be weary. The products are supposed to be from a flooded dealer from what I'm told. Your rolling the dice on water with electronics unless you have an "in" for parts.

Ah, you know... A little B&O here, a little there

My thoughts exactly. I'd rather not take the risk and have peace of mind. Oh those BL9's are tempting, but are they $4K tempting? Not for me.
