I know I read this earlier on the forum, but I didn't think it was true... buy 1 silica pack from EB and get a bass free. Well, I've got to tell you it's true. The UPS guy just showed up at my door and he had my specially ordered silica pack... low and behold, a Lime Green Bongo came with it!!!!

Now where is a good place to post pictures... I've got images of my silica pack to share with the world (I might even post the Bongo too).

Cool you got it! I understand that your silica pack cost $1290 - that's about what mine cost except I got TWO for the price of one, a brown and a white one (and a nice Bongo 5 thrown in). That Bass Central.....always giving the customer that extry special treatment!:D

I'm really feeling ripped. I think GC is keeping the sillica packs and reselling them for profit. There were none to be found in my case.:mad:

its a little pack of chemical gel type crap that they put inside of the case/box to absorb the moisture that forms durring shipping so it doesnt damage the bass

You know I always thought that the SR 5 string was the least nice looking of the lot, but Im begining to take to it in those colour schemes... not as good a sexy black sub though...

So you get a free bass when you order silica packs?:confused: Is silica expensive? And what's with eating it? I thought it was poisonous?

You might want to take your humo(u)r detector back to the electronics store--it appears to be broken. ;)
