Negative Positive
Title: Overpriced on Amazon
Review: I have just purchased this item and it does seem perfectly adequate for a secondary system (bought it to use on our enclosed patio.) I did not, however, purchase it through Amazon and my comment relates to why. Amazon lists the price at $199; however you can purchase this directly from the Sony website for $80 and I found mine at my local Sears for $79.95 (and saved on the shipping.) I have purchased many products from Amazon, over the years, and their prices have been consistently good, but from now on I will not assume that Amazon necessarly has the best prices. For Amazon (though in this case, this item is linked to an outside vendor) to sell stuff that is more than twice the price as available elsewhere, is very annoying. For $80, I love this boombox; for $199 I might not love it so much! I am extremely disappointed with my most recent (non-purchase) Amazon experience. Amazon - what gives???
Is the review positive or negative?
