Not advertising or anything, but I'm looking around for an AVIC-D3 and this price sounds too good to be true!

Any input would be great!

Here's their feedback on Reseller Ratings. It doesn't look good. I'd stay away.[/url]

The link scotty707 posted should tell you all you need to know. Definitely avoid those guys.

Some have said this is a good place and the price is close to the crooks price.

bbb info
Based on BBB files, this business has an unsatisfactory record with the Bureau, because there is a pattern of complaints, and the business has not corrected the underlying reason for the complaints.

The company's size, volume of business, and number of transactions may have a bearing on the number of complaints received by the BBB. The number of complaints filed against a company may not be as important as the type of complaints, and how the company handled them. The BBB generally does not pass judgment on the validity of complaints filed.


Stay away from this company. learn to read BBB info first

yeah BBB info is public info for anyone who has a buisness

http://www.bbb.com

if you ever have a complaint about a company or want to buy from a company. look here first.

if a company has a phone number do a reverse look up first to find out what state they are from via
http://www.reversephonedetective.com/

then once you have what area they are from. go to bbb and look up the name of the company and the input the citty or state they do buiness in and if they have compaints you will find then
