1st Post! I picked one up too.... 617 Amazon - 6 Ave. Last night it was 605, but I chickened out. I hope it's warrentied

Here may be another tip: I ordered mine about a week ago from 6thAve. I found it on Amazon, and I had some questions so I just called them up to ask, then ended up ordering. Anyhow, the guy asked me how much Amazon wanted for it, and I told him $639, which it was. But, had I been thinking on my feet, I probably could have saved some $$$. Clearly, he took what I told him and invoiced me for exactly that. So if you call and plan to order, be ready to name your price, within reason I'm sure.

I purchased my f90bt from amazon/6ave for $616. Installed it and blue tooth didnt work at all. Turns out the unit didn't have any software installed for it.

 

Just a heads up if anyone else has problems with there blue tooth.

I got mine for $574 with the amazon credit card. Just pay it off immediately.

I also ordered a F90BT from 6ave on Amazon and received it quickly and in working order. Was 2.0 updated as well.

Yeah I ordered mine on Tuesday and got it on Friday!!! Installed on Sat and Sun and working great! It was a 2.0 too.

Does it come with the bluetooth mic in the box?

 

I found it online at 86th something electronics, but soon read up on them...

 

Stay away! They are an authorized Pioneer dealer for ALL of their items.

 

Been in business 25 years w/ multiple stores.

 

Sounds good!

I just placed my order on the phone with their representative, which made my total + 2nd day shipping at only $640.79!

 

It will be here by Thursday or Friday at the latest.

 

Amazon would have been $679 with "expedited shipping". (about 3 days).

 

Either way, good bang for the buck and thanks for the tip!

 

PS - The representative does log into Amazon to confirm prices/unit etc b/c on their website the unit is listed at $1,199. The current base price is $614. Amazon/6ave... Kudos!

Bought the F90BT for $616 on amazon last night. Going to replace my Z1 upgraded to the 60gig Z3 with this one. I don't use the HD anyway.

Anyone know if its true that the f90bt has no warranty if bought online even from an authorized dealer like 6ave?

Posted Jan 15, 2009 · 02:28 UTC#38

According to Pioneer's website, 6ave is an authorized on-line reseller only for home entertainment products.

even if pioneer says your warranty will be voided you can buy an extended warranty from 6ave. I ordered my f700bt from them $497 total with free shipping and 3 year extended warranty. I can't wait this was the best deal i found out of anywhere.

 

Best Buy-on sale $649

Private Stores- $849 but willing to price match best buy. The ridiculous part they are charging $150 to install. I used to work at a car audio shop so i can install it myself just didn't want to. I've become lazy and rather just pay someone else to do it for me, but if everyone is charging 150 i'm doing it myself.

a few years ago, pioneer used to say that no online or catalog sales of the premier or elite lines were authorized. i did, however, use pioneer's site to look for an authorized retailer for the f90bt and 6th ave was listed. i can't say for sure if shipping products is authorized by pioneer. chances are that they may revoke the premier authorized reseller honor, but i would fight that pioneer themselves directed me to 6th ave and can't revoke the my warranty because the store i bought it at later lost its authorized reseller status

The times I have looked at it, their price has changed several times in the last couple weeks. Keep watching it, checking back daily... it will probobly go down again

Since i'll be waiting I might as well ask the question does the IPod Classic 120GB work with the F90bt? In terms of playing movies that is.

That is exactly what I have and it does a great job. Rip movies down to MP4 and let iTunes bring them in. I make music videos and drop similar artists (movies) into a folder and give it a name. I repeat this for each set I make. Then I set up album art for the movie titles using iTunes. As FYI album covers come across great too and you can add DVD cover art to the movies. Remember for album art or dvd art, Google is your friend.

 

So far no issues at all and 120 gig is nice. Don't waste any time trying a USB memory stick or SD for movies. The system gets laggy and slow. SD works better than USB for movies but it really slows down everything to an unbearable crawl on my system. Both USB and SD work fine for music and set up albums nice so I just stick with the iPod for video. I waisted a few bucks figuring this out but still use the SD for music and updating.

 

One tip. Let the VR directory for the iPod update once and then turn it off in the setting menu after it is complete. That updates the voice recognition for the iPod and you only need it turned on when you have added something to the iPod. Otherwise it will just slow down the boot time and limit the function of the iPod until it is finished. You don't want to deal with that each time you start the vehicle.

I picked up my F90 for $604 shipped from 6ave a couple weeks ago. Seems like the price is always changing.
