Recently on a mooch on the Bay I saw a Proel Flash 8 passive speaker. It was listed as "Manufacture refurb" and full working order so for £35.00 plus £6.00 postage I thought it was a no brainer. Retail is around £189.00.
So, I duly paid and received the dispatch notification yesterday. I wondered if it might turn up today so I clicked on the tracking number to find that TWO parcels are on the way to me. The listing didn't say only 1 speaker, the heading was "loudspeaker system" but no mention of a pair. Could be bargain of the month???? |

If it sounds like a gorilla is trying to escape, turn it down.

(FOR THE MONEY) I have a fair amount of time for the Flash 8A. Do a lot for not a lot of money, and so tiny.
Yeah a K8 does more, but for so much more money. Fingers crossed!

I reckon the courier has dropped it and you're receiving it in component form....

I reckon that they were returned to manufacturer by the original customer due to them arriving with damaged or dented grilles--Now that would be quite amusing!!!

Well, one parcel turned up this morning, only one speaker. It is in virtually new condition so still represents excellent value. I'll try it out later.
I can always get another one as I still have a trade account with Proel. There's still a chance the mystery parcel will turn up. Can't work out why the e-bay tracking link shows 2 parcels, the second is still not showing as collected and when I check it direct with Parcelforce it comes up as incorrect. Ever hopeful. |

Slight chance the despatch clerk consigned incorrectly, either as two cartons or perhaps messed up the dimensions the first time...
