They also are selling home audio products... Dunno if they're authorized or just picking up old stock.
Ludicrous gibs!

    Wow, that's really interesting. And they have a LOT of Polk stuff!

    But it all appears to me new stuff.

    Newegg is a pretty serious outfit. I would not expect them to be into shady deals. A totally trustworthy source IMHO.
    Alea jacta est!

    I know they're a serious outfit.... I buy all my computer components from them. What made me start poking around is that they had the midock portfolio on sale in their email newsletter. So, I started looking at what they have from Polk and was surprised!

    Just looked at the Polk Authorized online dealer list on this website and sure enough... there's Newegg.com. Wonder how they're selling those subs for $30??? If I had a need for some 8" DVC subs I'd be all over it....

    Oh, and every Polk product listed has free shipping... even the big home subs and Monitor 60's! Save ya a bit of money there... I'm guessing that it's just promotional, though. It doesn't look like they've been a dealer for very long.
    Ludicrous gibs!

    New Egg is a fantastic internet company. I've bought several things from them and they have quick shipping and no hassle returns. Highly recommended.
