Dynavin Style Aftermarket Head Unit Question/Help For Non Idrive

Hey so I have a non idrive car and really like built in navi's , I don't want a really obviously non OEM looking one. I've been looking at Dynavins but came across this (link below)...Its $245 shipped to my house which is about $350 less then a dynavin, im not a really cheap person I have no problem putting the money out but the dynavin's Screen shots aren't really impressing me , and this Koolertro one looks just as good or atleast the same. should i just give it a try If its horrible return it. Does anyone have any experience with anything like this. I'd be using paypal so I'm not worried about sending money to china since paypal has always helped me out in the past with disputes

here it is for $799 same one

i have one of those, another "brand"

basically you get what you pay

is not AWESOME but is not a piece of sh..

at least mine has a lot of stuff, ipod connection, 2 usb, microSD car, rearview cam, output for tv, etc

thats why i keep it.

the bluetooth works perfect to stream music from my iphone to the stereo, but works bad to talk on the phone, the microphone sucks, nobody can hear me

the GPS, hmm looks great but going to the same address from NYC to Boston says will take like 5 and a half hour, and my garmin says only 3 and a half (and actually is how long takes me to get there)

Other important thing about the GPS, at least for me the position is really low in the dashboard, is kinda dangerous have to be looking down while you are driving.

I have the winCE version, i hear that it might be a little better the version thats coming with Android

It looks like a wholesale website, i've Delt with sites like this before, it looks decently put together and I'd use paypal and would dispute the shit out of the deal if something went wrong.. The prices are pretty cheap but I am a retail store owner and mark ups on most products would make you sick. they have a clean online record and good feedback on comment sites

It's a scam just google audiogoshop. Apparently they only accept wire transfer on your first purchase.

No Paypal

Yeah all those places says that accepts PayPal but they don't.

Where I got mine said that but they only accept transfer in western union

Took me like a week to decided, because after u send the money, u just have to cross the fingers and wait for the best

Mine arrived pretty fast

you have to pay them through western union, no paypal.

that means you send the money and wait for the best.

And warranty and all that kind of stuff, on mine the cd doesnt work well at all, i dont use CDs so is not a big deal for me.

and the mic on the bluetooth works really bad, nobody can hear me, i tried to returned for another unit or for my money back and they never gave me an answer.

so basically you dont have any warranty
