Re: Do NOT buy from Etronics (Lord Odin)
When I installed my CDA-7998, the first HU didn't work correctly. I couldn't get the face piece to fully close. I pulled it out and had to drive to the big city to another Car Toys and grab their last unit in stock. I left the dash unassembled and told them I was going out to see if it worked. I hooked it up and it was good to go.
I feel your frustration man. I went through a Pioneer, that my wife won as a door prize and it didn't work either. I was extremely upset as I had already put new CDT components in the doors and had the amps installed as well...
Best of luck to ya! :thumbs:

Re: Do NOT buy from Etronics (bogus)
I have been buying my stuff from Sounddomain. So far so good. But I guess there is always that off chance that it could happen there too. Besides the http://www.sounddomain.com gives 105% price matching. :cool:

Have to show them Etronics ad and find out if they'll give me an even cheaper price for a new unit in case Etronics doesn't work out.

Re: Do NOT buy from Etronics (vrumvrum)
I doubt it's etronics but seems I'm having the same problem everywhere, it takes WAY to much effort to make a purchase anymore.
Good luck :)
Good luck :)
UH OH. :( :mad I ordered an Alpine CHA-1214 changer for my Alpine 7998 about the time this thread started (Feb 14) from etronics. They said it was in stock and ships in 1-2 days. They estimated I would receive it by the 24th. The web site says it is still in "processing". They probably don't have the product and accepted the order anyway. :banghead: I have had that happen several times with Autobahn (California Concepts) and a couple of other New York camera shops.
I get lousy service when I use local stores, I get lousy service when I order internet. :banghead: :banghead: I'll try to cancel, CALL sounddomain, and DRIVE to Seattle and pick it up myself. That way maybe I can eliminate as many :troll handling the order as possible and increase the chance of making a purchase that takes less than a month.
