Title says it all. I'll start. Today I got an iPod 60gb for really cheap.

There were these guys in a white van who said they were delivering these awesome speakers, but their customer changed their mind and they were stuck with a product they desperately needed to unload...

bargain.

I guess the free beta brainwavz I got on Monday? Or maybe the OEM IEM's that came with the Sony X. Oh naa actually Klipsch S2's in the guise of X1's for £20..well worth it.

I once got 4 16-port netgear switches from a large UK retailer worth £40 each for £0.20p a piece due to a pricing error and they actually sent them out!

The ESS AMT-1 speakers I got for $300. I got modern woofers for another $100 or so and modern crossover parts and Dynamat for another $100 or so. My parents have them now, but they're some of the best speakers I've ever heard. I cannot believe that these speakers are relatively unknown and available at bargain prices.

I got the TF10 for $100 also, awesome deal.

Years ago, I was replacing a stereo system, and the dealer threw in a set of Audio Technica ATH-7 headphones for his cost (he actually showed me his price sheet.) $165 for cans that retailed for $350.

Arcam CD73 second hand for €150 a couple of years ago (new €650). Pretty good deal. A couple scratches but it still works perfectly.

Funny, I was approached by a couple doing that same thing many years ago. I had never experienced that sort of pan handling before and almost fell for it. Thankfully, I didn't.
