I checked te OC craigslist last night, lots of high quality boxes and some junk.
The junk is ... junk.

The higher quality stuff is .... priced higher than retail for new.
Seriously.

Looks like a bunch of clowns paid through the nose for status boxes and with that kind of sense went out of business quickly, and are now trying to recoup all their losses.
Good luck with that.
