Save Big Bucks on Denon Receivers (AVR-2809CI, AVR-4808CI)

[MrBoylan]

Denon has a great reputation among audiophile and videophile circles as a maker of high end home theater receivers (aka "AVRs" for "Audio Video Receivers"). they're built like a tank and packed with features and performance. But if you read the not so fine fine print on the Denon web site, you'll find that Denon is serious about protecting their customers (and their dealer network) from the shady practices of unscrupulous online and mail order dealers. If you buy a Denon receiver from a store that is not an authorized Denon dealer, then you may find yourself with a grey market product intended for some other market, and absolutely no warranty.

So what's a poor quality-oriented budget-conscious consumer to do? Well what you could do is buy your Denon receiver from an authorized online dealer like OneCall Electronics, but look for any "open box" deals like these, which can save you up to 30% or more:

Open Box Denon Deals (OneCall)

What's an open box deal? Basically, it could be a returned unit from a customer who did not understand how to hook it up, or it could be a unit that was placed on demo briefly in OneCall's showroom or used for training by OneCall sales staff, or it could be a unit that had its box opened accidentally while in the warehouse. In any case, all of OneCall's open box items are fully operational, include all supplied accessories and carry their full manufacturer's warranty, as well as OneCall's 30-day satisfaction guarantee. If you're not satisfied with the product, you can return it within 30 days for a full refund.

Of course, stock varies and you might have to check back every once in a while until they have the exact model you're looking for, but right now some of OneCall's current open box Denon receiver deals include:
