I was lookin on ebay for some stuff and they had Clifford G4/G5 stuff and Matrix 3.5 stuff sellin for 400ish. Is that a decent price to get it?

Does anybody have any experience getting stuff off ebay? Will a DEI-licensed installer install a DEI product that was bought off Ebay?

thanks for your answers guys

Be careful with ebay especially with electronics. And dont purchase anything "off ebay" cause thats when you can really get ripped off even if the price sounds too good.

I purchased a RSX3.5 from Ebay and had it installed at BestBuy. I paid about $260 for the alarm. BestBuy was going to charge about $200 to install it. But, the first installer couldn't install it. After coming back several times, they installed it for free. With that being said, unless you can install it yourself in my opinion it's not worth it. One thing that ebay is good for, is buying alarm accessories (passlock, mercury switches). If your interested send me a pm and I'll tell you who I get my stuff from.

Be careful getting stuff on ebay especially, and anything to do with, car related electronics products. Some of them might be stolen. Its always good to ask the seller for the original reciept of the item just in case you will have a problem with the authorities in the future. I never tried buying anything off of ebay but I do hear some nightmare stories.

Just something to think about.

I know that If you install a DEI product yourself or have it installed by a non-certified DEI installer you void the warranty instantly.
