Did anyone else notice (yesterday, 9/21/07) on Audiogon the listing of four pairs of the speakers:

B&W N802D for $6,200

Wilson Watt Puppy 8 for $9,000

Sonus Faber Amati Homage for $7,500

Tannoy Westminster for $6,500

All prices included next day shipping....

by user Omconstruction?

Given the very low prices for these items, I fought off the urge to purchase & replaced the urge with suspicion.

Omconstruction had 108 feedback points (100% positive) and even posted a few times within the Audiogon forums. In the posts, Omconstruction referred to self as "Serge from Canada". You can search for Omconstruction on Audiogon to see a couple of his posts.
Or click here to see 4 posts starting in 2005.

Today, Omconstruction is no longer a registered user on Audiogon.

The ads posted to Audiogon were eventually updated to inform prospective buyers that bank wire transfer to a location in Arizona was required for purchase. I was emailing with a friend about these ads yesterday so I documented a bit of it - Below is a Cut/Paste of the ad for the Watt Puppy 8's.

------

The speakers are in great condition(10/10), barely used.
The speakers will come with remaining factory full warranty and professional incolor cables for the best sound quality.

For more informations and pictures please feel free to email me.

PRICE: $9000 (shipping fees included worldwide)

I do not ship to Nigeria!!!

The first buyer which will offer my price will get them, so you'd better hurry up!

!!!!NEW NOTE!!!
Due to the fact almost all potential buyers are asking the same questions I have added few more details.

PAYMENT METHOD: BANK WIRE TRANSFER
SHIPPING: Next day delivery (UPS, FedEx)
LOCATION: Phoenix, AZ
Once the payment is cleared I will shipp the products. All the shipping fees are included in the price!!!
