What was the craziest location that you made an audio purchase from?


I thought that this might be a fun topic.

 

I just purchased speaker cables on Audiogon while on a cruise ship in the Canary Islands How about you?

Nowhere except from over-priced HiFi emporia.... I have, though, "donated" one or two components I lost my jones for at thrift shops.

I once drove from South Jersey to a small high end store in Rochester NY years ago to buy a beautiful pair of Spendor 9/1 speakers. That was about 9 hours.

I bought a pair of Allison Model Two's from a discount furniture store.

No idea why they had the speakers, but they were cheap and a huge improvement on what I was using at the time.

On a bus in Italy going from the cruise ship to Pisa, I used my iPhone to buy a Unico CD player from Upscale Audio.
