Alpine CDA-9831 $254.99 at E-Bay?

What gives?  Why so cheap? The lowest I see around where I'm at is $389.00.  The 'Buy it Now' for $254.99 is advertised as brand new, unopened box, not refurbished.  I need some guidance fronm the group before I send these outfit from Florida my money.

OK that is very nomral because on ebay ppl sell stuff cheap for many reasons they dont do a MASSIVE mark up and sometimes they make money on shipping i too purchaed a 9831 for 250US + shipping a cpl months back. if the lowest you see them around in stores is 389 thats crazy high of a price too much thats what they cost here in canada in CDN about 399. go ahdead and buy it off ebay most even give 1 yr warrnty.

Hey thanks BLG!!  I posted the same topic at Elite Car Audio website and one of the guys in there actually both stuff from this same outfit from Florida and he's very happy with the items.
