Beolab 5 scam or real?

9 replies

Hi All,

My first post here, so go easy! Long term B&O fan. 3rd generation of the family owning some fantastic products. I recently refurbed a pair of Pentas and am delighted with them.

Here goes:

I've been engaged with an eBay seller - of this listing:

P.s. he has sent me some additional photos too.

The remote location (helps keep people from actually getting to him) and the lack of taking PayPal and the whole bank transfer thing would raise alarm bells to me. My spidey sense is tingling on this one.

If you smell a rat, only a tiny bit, it is a RAT!!!!!  Rat-a-tat-TAT!!!!

Old adage, if it sounds too good to be true, it's too good to be true. Or something like that.

Location: Los Angeles, CA
