Brand-electronics.com?

Has anyone ever done business with these guys? Prices look a little too good to be true... :confused:

A quick Google search shows no results except the main page of the shop. Looks like a fly-by night. You'd be lucky to get anything for your money.

I just received a full set of Polk speakers from them with no problem. It has been several threads concerning this company. I asked the same question before I ordered my speakers. Everything was in Polk boxes, but do not know if the warranty is good or not.

It sounds like you might not get a warranty.

Another website mentioned on this site stated that the serial numbers was scratched off on the products they sold. My speakers still had them, but from what I have read about Polk speakers is you would most likely not ever need the warranty anyway.

Were all of the boxes sealed? I recently considered purchasing from a store called www.acousticsounddesign.com, but they told me that thier boxes have all been opened and the serial numbers have been removed.

After I saw that I decided I should probably just order from onecall.com or crutchfield.com.

Curious to know whether your stuff had been opened though.

Everything I received from them was in sealed Polk boxes and the serial numbers were not scratched off.

Went to Reseller Ratings at http://www.resellerratings.com/ and Accoustic Sound Designs had 2 > 6 month old ratings: both "Somewhat Satisfied." One mentioned lack of S/Ns

"Brand-electronics.com" was listed, even though they list some resellers without any ratings.
