^  because the first three will break within 2 weeks, because I'm quite sure they are fakes. BUT anyone brave enough to try? If it is real, I'll give you $100 for one of them...

I'm sure that some legit dealer is selling them for about 25% of their current market price and has so many of them that he has to sell them in groups of 4 or more.  Yeah....

It's too bad actually cause that group buy was a good one. I mean you can get the same one on ebay for the base-rate of the group buy, but the group rate is nice. I wouldn't, IMHO, describe that particular link as "predatory pricing" by definition.
Oh well, on to the next deal!

I've never actually tried them.  I almost went in on an Audioengine D1 deal they had a while back, but decided to hold off at the last minute.  Good thing I did, as the Meridian Explorer I heard a few days later kind of blew my mind.

Right on!  Don't want to get my innards hung on a hook for going too far off topic here.

Guys, is this a Turbine Pro Copper with controltalk? Weird they don' have an image for it(?)

Would be a steal for 199?? Can anyone confirm this, please?

It depends for what you consider a steal, is up to you.
Later you could sell me the small foam tips they come with.
