Crotchfeel has prices set too high.

www.bought4less.com has a great selection, low prices, real live customer
service with out a phone menu.
www.bought4less.com has immeadiate shipping, not a 2-3 day wait.

I don't trust them, no matter how long they've been around. Their web
site looks like , is covered in banner ads, has a missing picture
on the bottom of the first page, and has multiple syntax errors on the
main page.
Crutchfield, on the other hand, has a very clean web site where you
can tell them what car you own and they will only show you parts
compatable with your car.
Your site has "real live customer service." That just means that they
only have one or two CS people and can't afford the necessary
equipment to run a proper phone system.
Oh, and I've never had my orders from crutchfield take more than one
day to ship.

Bough4Less is the internet area of Air&Sound. Began in the fall of 2000
to meet the needs of more customers.
However it must be this reciept from Crutchfield I have that shows a
1971 date must be wrong then huh...

From Crutchfields site-
Free Technical support for a LIFETIME.
Before and after the sale, our people are ready to help. Crutchfield's
Product and Technical Advisors receive at least 2 months of training
before helping their first customer.
> >www.bought4less.com has immeadiate shipping, not a 2-3 day wait.
From Crutchfields site-
We stock what we sell - on average, over 94% of our inventory is waiting
for you at our warehouse.
Most in-stock items ordered by 5 PM Eastern Time Monday through Friday
will be delivered in 2-3 business days with free shipping on orders of
$199 or more.
Yep on a Shitty web site that looks like it was set up by a 5 year old.
Hosted on tripod , guess it's hard to afford a REAL web site on a real
server. Maybe if they didn't look like a scam operation they would get
some real money.

Re: Disappointed with XG's bass/treble controls (and Stereo)
Crutchfield does NOT have prices set to high. Compare prices. Here, I'll give you a little challenge, find this HU cheaper somewhere else: Sony CDX-MP70. Now, don't forget that with every HU you purchase, you get everything you will NEED to put it in, and that means everything to make it look factory, and anyone can follow the directions. I put mine in in 15 minutes. Prep time was 10 minutes. Cost-FREE!
Now, to state some facts here. HTH can a .com be in business longer than a brick-and-mortar store that's been in business over 30 years? And where do you get this info they have been in business since 1972? Certainly not from that 8th grade website they have, with such a great selection of out of date products, all 16 HU's they have listed. I mean, Crutchfield carries over 20 Kenwood's alone.
Tech support? What's B4L's tech support #? I didn't see it on their site. Have a link? And shipping, read their page again. Crutchfield has same day shipping with 2-3 day delivery and free shipping on orders over $200, not based on how much it weighs. Oh yeah, want to send it back? Just stick the enclosed return UPS shipping sticker on it and send it back, no fees out of your pocket.
LOL dude, that website is the biggest pos I have ever seen. Their mailto address is someone's personal swbell email account. lol Dude, put the crackpipe down and get serious. sheesh
About pages from both:

LOL I hope you don't think people are that dumb.
