stupid fucker:1orglaugh

:1orglaugh "fell off the back of a truck, honest"

So he bought stolen speakers?

You call that getting OWNED?

thats out of a bad movie
even has the guy whos face you cant see smoking a cig
very interesting...

lol that mexican looks happy. snagged another one

Isn't that the scam where they sell you cheap ass $50 speakers for like $800?

not only are they usually stolen, they're usually really really shitty speakers. A guy here fell for that one. Terrible terrible speakers.

heh its usually not stolen speakers.

more like old ass speakers that don't work.

apparently you have just fallen off the truck also, those fuckin speakers dont work dude, that scam is as old as the nigerian email money transfer scam :1orglaugh

yeah exactly....we got the same scam going on here....guy told me they worth 1000$ EACH LOL(he got hold of me in a parking lot..)...I was like...you're fucking kidding me LOL...my friend bought the exact same ones for like 150$ for both ....:321GFY

I heard that pitch a few times first hand.. :1orglaugh

or maybe boxes full of bricks

Can you see the smile on his face LOL....priceless...
Wow! I screwed another one!... :Graucho

exactly:Graucho

:helpme

lol

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh ahaahaha nice man :thumbsup

The scam used to be, "we just picked up some speakers from the factory but they gave us extra and didn't notice it. We need to unload these before returning to the store where our boss will notice."

You could sell them anywhere from $100 - $200 each and still make a profit. They were cheap speakers from China.

you can pick up those speakers on Ebay too now, they print up pretty slick brochures for them... real crap, about as good quality as a plastic cup with wires glued to it.

LOL I was told this exact story, and i'm in montreal! shows you how this scam is popular! :1orglaugh

I always knew that was a scammed but never really bothered to look up where they came from etc. Good thread. People always drive around the LSU campus trying to pawn that shit off on people. Funny.

why not be cool with your neighbor and tell him that you have the guy license plate on the pictures ?

dude he was showing him a brochure but I didnt have my camera at that time, I was fuckin to busy laughin:winkwink:

I just did, I had to wait to stop laughing

the typical white truck

A fool and his money... :1orglaugh

I've never head of anyone pulling that one firsthand up here.

You get what you pay for..

I've had this happen to me 3 times a long time back.
Then I went over to a friends house and saw the speakers.
He got them with the same story. Big speakers, 15in woofers, nice wood cabnets, built in selectable cross-overs. The speakers sound awesome. He paid $200 for both I think. That was 10 years ago maybe. They still rock in his basement and shake his house.

I had that happen to me. I bought the speakers and they kicked ass. Still kick ass today. :thumbsup

The smile on that guy's face is priceless!!:1orglaugh

damn.. i got approached 4 times in different parking lots with people selling "left over speakers". the first time around i said i was not ineterested. but when i got approached again at a Cosco parking lot, i figured there was something fishy, and took time to listen to what the guy had to say, just to try and figuring out where the scam was.


but the one that been puzzling me lately is the Armani leather jacket one.
once at a gas station in LA, and another at a gas station in Vegas. so both time, some doodz in a rental approach me and tell me, in a rather real italian accent, that they just finished a fashion show and were given some expensive leather jackets as gifts.
now, they claim that customs in Italy have a quota on how many designer stuff you can bring in the country. but check this out.. they both tell me the story about not being able to pay their rental car fees because of credit card issues and just need to luiquidate the jackets for whatever price i thought was fair and blah blah.
the only thing though, the jackets did not look like they were made in China. it looked and felt like good quality leather. but i just don't know at what level they were tryin to pull the scam from. 2 different states, same circumstances and same speech. it's gotta be a fucken scam..

theres these guys near me that do the same thing "these are commercial speakers, better than bose". i just laugh at them.

Its always the SAME EXACT VAN too... so funny.

I've been approached by them at gas stations and burger kings and even university parking lots... :1orglaugh

hahaha i know the people that tried selling me speakers had the SAME VAN.

we call those "molestor vans"

dont the molester vans have loud speakers and icecream stickers on the side?

This happened to me twice when I lived in Dallas, the first time I actually needed speakers so I pulled over to let them pitch it to me (We were stopped at a light) and then they even put them in my trunk and told me i could get some money at an atm. I pretended to get money out and told them that I was overdrafted (I felt like I was going to regret the purchase) they told me they were brand new, left over from a job, if they bring them back to work their boss will just give them away or some shit, so they have to sell them before...

I thought about just driving off with the speakers in my car when they got distracted, but I didn't. I just told them I couldn't get the cash and no thanks... So do they just get these cheap speakers online, rent a uhaul van (white) and then drive around and make a quick dollar? I never knew it was so common... I think I saw them in Dallas 3-4 times, different people each time.

Heard the same pitch from someone in a Seattle parking lot about 15 years ago. That scam must really work for it to never go away.

I haven't heard this one. Too cold to sell shit out of vans in Canada? :)

damn yall dont even got curbs on your sidewalks? lol

oldest scam in the book-

D$ and I sold pictures door to door and meat door to door as well-

There is something to be said about that speaker scam though along with cutlery and colognes ( fakes) it will never go away

:1orglaugh

I can't believe how stupid people can be at times! :1orglaugh

Yeah right lol

Dude got owned.

There was a 'scam warning' about this in Aus on a popular current affairs program. The guys were hanging around in shopping mall parking lots and offloading shitty speakers.

heh - there was this guy last fall who hit me up more than once in a parking lot at Washington Mutual trying to sell me some speakers - i figured they were hot LOL

Empty cases always own the suckers.

Nice racket!:1orglaugh

It might not be empty after all. He did carry one of the boxes. Although I still doubt the contents!

ROFL!!! 4 of my friend got owned by that scam, here in orlando they chill near the ATM and try to get you to take out more money. The speakers are worth like $20 funny thing is 2 of my friends got pressured so bad they only bought one speaker. what are you gonna do with one speaker lol

haha those guys tried to get me on that scam..lol

i was like ok..lets go to my place...plug them in and crank them up if they rock ill buy them..but they werent into it.

i didnt worry abvout bringing thieves over as i lived with all guys
