Jeeze, you too! I just posted a thread while looking through the classified section and getting irritated. My post hasn't even come up yet, and now I feel sort of stupid because I bitched about basically the same thing before I even got to the discussion section today. However, I'm with you all the way. Just buck up and give me a price, if it's what I want, and the price is right, I'll be in touch.

never clicked on one either

They are often dealers selling new stuff below MSRP. Supposedly, they can't print the price because the other dealers would complain to the manufacturer(as if they all don't know what's going on). I've been calling one of these guys for over a month waiting for him to get in stock the thing he was advertising. But he is an authorized dealer, according to the manufacturer, the nearest one (even at 2+ hrs away) for several products I want to audition.

OK, never mind the feeling stupid part from earlier. My post was declined because it was too similar, so I’ll post it as a response to this post.
I realize that this has probably been beaten to death, (duh) but what’s up with dealers advertising in the classified section with the “call for pricing” crap. I know it’s a technicality, since they're not trying to sell “dealer demos” but isn’t that where they belong, (Dealer demo section)? I enjoy quickly scanning through the amps for sale classified section regularly (as if maybe I can afford what I really want. Yea, right), but you never know when the “right thing might come along at the right price.” I have no problem with dealers posting here, don’t get me wrong, it’s just that if I wanted to call, or visit a dealer to find out a price on a new piece then that’s what I would do. It just seems as though the classifieds section should be for used equipment, or at least should have an asking price for each item listed. It’s nothing to loose any sleep over, I just need to vent.
Thanks, Brad
