Audio Aero Capitole II with no serial numbers?


I"m kinda' concerned about something going on here, and I think people should be aware of possible illegal goings-on. There are people selling Audio Aero Capitole MkII CD players at big discounts, with lame reasons for why they are getting rid of them so fast. It seems obvious that they got hold of them through irregular channels and are flipping them immediately for a profit, by-passing the dealers, etc.
One guy says that the players are from Europe, with no serial numbers (?!?!?!?!?)and therefore no Warranty.
Like, I want to buy a player like that with no Warranty and probably no good will from the distributor or dealers here to help me out?!? How do I know that the player isn't stolen, and will be confiscated if I do take it to a place that knows how to fix it that has connections to Audio Aero?
BUYER BEWARE people!!!!

Golden Ears does everyone in this hobby a disservice by lumping everyone who just might have his or her own personal reasons to sell this excellent player on the used market. There are those who do have American warranties and serial numbers but for some reason you have a problem with those also. It has been my experience that most companies with good consumer reputations such as AA will honor the warranty if it came from a legitimate dealer initially.
