That happened to me before. I pulled up in front of Future Shop, they pull up next to me and ask me if I want to buy a home theater setup for a great price. I give them that WTF look and say Umm no. He looks at me and laughs and says "Heard that one before eh?" and pulls off.

He has to be back at his boss' in an hour and wants to unload the "extra" shipment for some cash. I refused, assuming they were hot.
Strangely, the same thing happened to me again at the Home Depot lot on Terminal. This time a white Escalade, different guys.
Are they selling hot stuff? Has this happened to anyone else recently?
My only other thought is that they put together some really terrible equipment, and use the technique so the buyer "looks" like he's getting a good deal.
Kev | WTF I saw these guys today at Lordco on stillcreek, they asked my buddy if he waned to buy a surround sound or sum shit, they were in a dark coloured Tahoe, Haha They used that same excuse, I picked up my order and got double shipment.

1 day my older brother comes home and rushing into my room looking all excited and shit.
He then starts to drag me downstairs and saying shit like "Check out what I just got!" and "I got a crazy deal!".
I get downstairs and guess what I see. DaVinci speakers! *facepalm*
