Refurb Onkyo TXSR806 $512.10 USD from Onkyo.com

[Watson]

If you are in the market for a great receiver, albeit last years model, Shoponkyo.com has the TX-SR806 (refurb) on sale for $569 less 10% Columbus sale (9-16Oct09) equating to $512.10. (http://www.shoponkyo.com/products.cf...s=1&group_id=1) Free shipping and no tax too when shipped to Niagara Falls NY. Still comes with 1yr parts/labour warranty.

I believe if you register and create a profile with Onkyo you also get another 15 points good for $15 more off. I already have these points from an old account and am not sure if this is still possible.

The same receiver is selling for $899.99 at Crutchfield Canada less 5% equating to $854.99 (http://www.crutchfield.ca/Onkyo_TXSR...580txs806b.htm). Not an entirely fair comparison because it's new, 2yr warranty, and in Canada, but gives you some frame of reference.

i bought from them before but they will not accept canadian credit cards and u have to pick up from usa address.. warranty is no good in canada..

its cus canadian dealers can not compete against the american price so they do not allow international buyers. i had a hard time finding an american friend to pay for it and picking it up... good deal if u dont mind the trouble.. but you will have to pay taxes at the border
