Nothing most people on here don't already know, but I thought the list of WV "companies" at the end was interesting.

    I bought a Rolax watch once from a white van.

    People up here do the same scam out the trunk of their cars too. At the gas station by my house a guy bought some Klipsch towers out of someone’s trunk. Only to get home and finds bricks and foam filled boxes. Got soaked for $800 cash. Stupid is as stupid does. Peace. D

    I bought a pair of MartinHogan speakers, a Panasound power amp, a vintage Scamsui receiver, an Oddo player, and some MTI speaker wires for less than $3000. Those suckers in the white van didn't even know what they had!
