Brendel Electronics *White Van Scam

Feb 1, 2011. We were in the parking lot of "The Brick" going to shop for a mattress, when this guy in his white van approached us and asked us if we wanted some high end speakers for cheap. We said no but he was persistent and said he will show us and we dont have to buy. We looked at it and I was skeptical so I took a video while my camera was in my purse. He was saying he was willing to take whatever we could take out of our bank machine. This guy scammed us for $350, and sold us "MSRP $4500" Brendel Home theatre speaker set. These guys are organized PRO Actors, they know exactly what to say. Showed us an invoice, website, magazine. Ruthless. Once you open the boxes..its all cheap china stuff probably worth $30 and apparently is a fire hazard. And does not have any of the cool features as listed on the boxes such as "Wireless speakers, sd slots etc" BEWARE
