A few people seem to be happy with it from what I've read in forums. It's retail is $3000 so you have to wonder how the guy is selling it less than $2000 off MSRP. I like the looks of it and for the price it's certainly tempting as there aren't too many 3 channel amps on the market.

I have seen it several places for 1100-1300. It looks like Monster is getting out of the market.

I figure shipping is about twice actual.

Yes, it always makes me wonder when I see something at 1/3 the price.

I believe that there was a phone number at the bottom of the add. You might want to give him a call tomorrow and find out a little more?

Is it worth $601 + $85 S/H. It is a new amp!

I'm sure you could find a comparable 3 channel amp for that price.

I'm not sure that this is a valid offer. I bid on the Monster amp on EBAY and received three bogus "second chance" offers.

I would strongly recommend that you fully and thoroughly check this out before spending any of your hard earned cash!!!

Never mind!

Ratpack was correct. It was spoof! And very good spoof at that.

The emails have been forwarded to ebay's security division.
