I actually had some guys almost run me over in white van over a year ago in Bournemouth and then try and sell me some speakers. They also claimed that they had an extra set of 'record studio quality speakers,' delivered. They dived out of the van after jumping it onto the pavement at speed and they did it so quickly I honestly thought they were about to put a bag over my head and then abduct me. But the next thing I know they were waving a floor standing speaker about saying it was worth £2000 for the pair but they would give me a set for £200.
When I told them I had no cash they got a little bit aggro and started telling me to go to the cash point and they would drive me to the nearest one if I liked because otherwise I'd miss out on the deal of a life time. When I said I wasn't interested one of them put his arm around my shoulders and went from being aggressive to being overly friendly as if he had some weird split personality disorder. Eventually in order to make them go away I told them I'd give them £20 for a pair. Surely I thought to myself "no one would say yes to such a stupidly low price."
Oh how wrong I was, they looked at each other for a second and then told me they would take £50 and started to get an incredibly light looking box out of the van. I didn't have £50 on me and I sure as hell didn't want to give them £50 so I did the only thing that I could think of. Whilst they were getting the box out I just ran out into the road and ran home as fast as my tubby legs would carry me.
I like this from that website "By 1995, the DiVInci logo was on well over half the new speakers in Britain"
What a load of bollocks, I've never heard of them and I like to consider myself about 50% audiophile.
