| Agreed. There are tweeters in the picture. We assume the speaker "speaks". You can't sell a car with wheels that don't turn - without the buyer knowing about it. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |

| Legally you might be able to if it says "as-is" on it. But you can always warn your buddies about the seller later. | |

| No, I don't think he can legally do that, more importantly, why would he?
This is not really anything to worry about. The seller has a 99% positive rating. If you tell him the problem, he's going to give you a refund or replace the speakers. Otherwise, you can lodge a complaint with ebay and they'll make sure he both compensates you, and that his ebay rating is ruined. He doesn't want that.
The April 19th question in the auction clears things up a bit:
"Q: Hello, Your auction states "AS-IS"..Do these speakers have any defects or problems? Are they used? Thank you! Apr-19-09
A: They are new but not in the original box. They work great." _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |

| I'm not too worried, either way I can use them.
If they're new, why don't they have tweeter wires? Why are they listed are "refurbished?"
I'm getting curious what the history of these speakers is. | |

| I received the ones that have a metal cage covering the speaker and they don't require any modification to the speaker or door panel. BTW, now that I've had them in for a couple of weeks and have had a chance to listen to different types of music, they are very good speakers - much better than my stock ones. Can't wait until I amplify them and really hear their potential. | |

That is much different from what I received. It has a mesh cover too, but I doubt that's what you're referring to. We'll see what the seller says. Evidently something is not right here. | |

| If they are indeed Quart mids, will work fine for the rear fill, but you should be getting some kind of discount from the seller. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |
