Just a heads up if you get approached, the TV's probably with 50 bucks and they will try to get you to spend 300 or so by telling you its a 3000 dollar set.

Did the tv boxes have an MSRP printed on them? I can't wait until they start showing up on Kijiji. The speaker scam stuff has been there and in local pawn shops for years. Here's an old Crimestoppers report from when some "speakermen" got robbed of their "high end electronics", JVR and Bach n Odin.
