ON THE STREETS EVERYWHERE!
They Sell Stereo's and Speakers from their
car or van, No Speaker inside!, a real rip-off !

They'll pull up to you at a light, or approach you in a
parking lot. They'll say, hey man, look we got a load of
stereo equipment we need to get rid of or, were moving
out of town and need to dump the stuff so we can leave
town, are you interested? its real cheap!

Ya, they are trying to lead you to believe that the speakers
and steros are Hot, they won't say that, they just imply
that. Like maybe the stuff fell of a truck and were trying to
sell it.

Well this would be a good deal, maybe. Not so! They will
show you a speaker that's in an open box and they'll even
open up the speaker so you can see the inside. The speakers
are very impressive.

The box they will sell you will be sealed shut making you
feel you are getting something new. It will be new, but
guess what? Your going to get a brand new speaker cabinet
only.
That's right. A speaker cabinet ONLY. No speaker will be
inside the cabinet!
The stero's have nothing inside either!

Get their license plate number if you see them. Report them
to the police and may be put the information on this Web
site. I'm sure other people will appreciate it.

I am told through an X-Sales person they are mostly in the
southern part of the united states during the winter months
and up north for the most part in the summer.

The cities they work mostly in are All over New Jersey
where there main distribution center is. Also, Long Island
New York, Upstate New York, Chicago suburbs, Virginia
Beach, Providence Road Island, Dallas Ft. Worth,
Galveston and Austin Texas, Atlanta Ga., all over Florida,
Tucson and Phoenix Arizona, Las Vegas Nevada, Denver
and Bolder Colorado and various cities in California.
They could be in other cities as well.

I was driving home after work with my stereo up loud. I guess they heard the bass. so they yelled to me wanna buy some house speakers. so we pulled over in the gas station and they showed me these speakers and showed me a magazine with them in it for 999.00 each i was like whoa. so i was like how much, they said 300 for both. I got them for 100 for both. it was 2 guys in a white van saying they made a delivery and tere company sent them 4 extras and they didnt want to take them back to there store, and that he wanted to goto the stip club. So i was like sure. He said i owe his lots of beers and he left. The speakers were worth 20 id say. but the fact of being appart of this scam pisses me off. There in Ohio now. They said they make 8 bucks a hour delvering stereo equptment from cleveland to pittsburg. Oh well i guess.

Their name: russ Iverson



Their relationship to the company: Consumer Suggestion



Rebuttal:

I have had a few people ask about warranty sevice

for the Dogg speakers if any one knows. My personal reaction is that anyone who purchases these speakers deserves to lose their money. What part of buying electronics from a van seems honest. Sounds like crooks selling to crooks.

Hey I just got hit by them in Provo Uath, so Salt Lake City and Provo watch out.



There are other Rip-off Reports they are in many other cites.



The speakers in the box you will get will have no speaker. Just the speaker cabnet.
