yes, that $500 deal is definitely a scam. i emailed the guy about it about a
few weeks ago and he said that all the equipment was actually selling for
$400 plus $50 for shipping and $50 to cover the Great Western wiring fee. he
also said he lived in new york, which is where i am. so, i told him i would
give him $500 cash in person and just pick everything up myself--thereby
giving him an extra $100 and allowing me to check out the equipment and
avoid having to make a shady money transfer. needless to say, the guy never
wrote back.

The SCAM sale of a full DJ setup is appearing on a
wide range of email
lists around the San Francisco bay area and beyond
today. If you see
this offer on another list, PLEASE warn the list that
it is NOT true. (See the new email, which I am
including below.)
Characteristics of the scam:
1. Each time the site is hosted on iwarp.com.
2. Each time, the sale has been for a LOT of
equipment
for only $500 - $600. Too good to be true, and
it is.
Never buy used equipment without seeing it first or
without some
enforcable delivery guarantee. Period.
