As i posted in another thread, I won a Polk CS1000P in black on ebay for $450 shipped. It arrived, and I was blown away by the way the seller packaged it. Took me at least five to ten minutes just to get it out of the box.

When I got it out of the box, I was basically looking at a brand new CS1000P. I mean it wasn't new, but I can'f find a flaw cosmetically or sound...IT IS PERFECT!!!!!!!

I felt bad that the seller had to pay $38 more in shipping than what he posted in the auction. The price was $410 plus $40 in shipping....he spent $78, being that he took the time to carefully package it and it arrived in like new condition I feel that is the least I could do.

I was gonna post pics, but I thought why? We all know what the CS1000P looks like and I feel like I just came home with it from the store.

Now if I could find just 2 Black RT3000 that would give me my second complete RT5000 set !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Congrats on being able to afford a second set of this set-up.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.
