Why leave feedback if the Audiogon team is just going to remove it?

I recently bought a power cord from member "troy10".

I left this feedback - which was later removed by Audiogon for what reason I have no idea.


Only leaving NEUTRAL instead of NEGATIVE on the off chance the seller did not actually know this power cord was not authentic. I currently own 3 LessLoss power cords and have two very good audio buddies that own 7 between them. I have also owned 3-4 more in the past as my system(s) underwent change. When this cable arrived, I noticed right away that it was missing the normal "LESSLOSS" decal and the "OYIADE.COM" decal on each end of the cable. When I contacted the seller, he said that just because there are no stickers, that does not mean that it is a fake. I checked my existing cables and called my friends to confirm as well, and all 10 of the power cords had both of these stickers present at each end of the cable. It was only after several messages back and forth between myself and the seller that he finally said "I removed the stickers". THIS IS INCREDIBLY DECEPTIVE... I now have to go through the arduous process of making a claim on PayPay to get my funds back...very disappointed with this transaction.

There's only one side of this story being aired, so I'm only going to criticize that one side, even though the unheard side is probably open to an equal amount of criticism.

Removable stickers on a power cord proving authenticity is a joke.  Even if it did have a sticker, how would you known the sticker was authentic?

If the stickers are that important, why didn't you inquire about them before completing the transaction?  If you couldn't see them in the photo you should have asked for a different photo with the stickers clearly visible.

Before concluding that they are fake you should have them examined by a dealer, distributor or the manufacturer.
