    I just left BestBuy. The 11’s are gone but you can still get the 9’s.

    I wonder how many units they have/had in stock and what the sales volume was like?

    FWIW, I work in the consumer electronics industry and can tell you for sure these are being sold at an enormous loss. This is probably less then it costs Alpine to make them, much less what BB pays.

    My guess is a legal contract type thing. Like BB didn't renew a contract with Alpine and Alpine's lawyer said you can only sell stock on hand until Aug xx and if you sell any after that, you will owe us $xxxxxx for breach of contract. So, BB did what they could to make what they could in a very short time.

    Or I'm just a dunk idiot that doesn't know a damn thing.

    That may very well be the explanation. I tried to get info from the sales drones from BB but got nowhere.

    @strut_r sent me a nice thank you for the ToyoMafia swag I sent him. I can’t thank them enough for saving the whole crew thousands

    Or if you have an old composite video cable kicking around and know how to solder, you might be able to make your own adapter. I kind of want a front camera but don't want to pay $20 for a what amounts to a composite end and a connector.

    This is pretty damn awesome.

    Wonder how many we bought in total. Probably more than a few lurkers read the thread and went to the store. Haven't seen it anywhere else on the internet, usually deals like this spread like wildfire and are gone in hours.

    Edit: The thread has over 10k views.
