Just because someone 'says' they are a dealer, does not mean they have an actual store. All they may have is a reseller's license and a hope. And then there are actual stores.. and hole in a wall no one would actually step inside of. Or the store is 'really great', and soon, soon to move from his Mother's barn.
BE VERY CAREFUL OF YOUR DEALINGS ON AUDIO-ASYLUM
I have entered in to some dealings on Audio Asylum trader that are less than honorable......I made a deal with a established dealer to trade some rather expensive Atma-Sphere amplifiers for some basket case Altec amps.......After sending the well packed and insured amps , they where received in good order to the Audio Asylum dealer.......Keeping in mind that this dealer made no effort to ship my part of the deal during the week his amps were shipped....After no less than ten phone calls he tells me he doesn't know how to pack them, so I told him to take them to a "Pack and Ship" store and ship them....I would share the cost of shipping..........He has now fell off the face of the earth....no calls, no e-mails, no nothing......he will not answer the phone or in anyway communicate at all........Later this week I will put his Audio-Asylum business name on here.....What are your thoughts on this ??????? .

Keep in mind that all the time you give him to respond gives him all the time to vamoosh. Or, he can move the money and if you were to personally confront him, he'll just pull his pockets inside out and tell you to kiss the rabbit on the nose. The fact that he's not responding to your emails and that AA is moving at a glacial pace is not looking good for you. Contact the local P.D. or whatever works for you and start a claim.

I am guessing it is this person. http://www.audioasylumtrader.com/ca/listing/Amplifier-Tube/Altec/1570B/POWER-amps-pair/191590 |

I hate seeing this happening. If the listing dill has posted is the one you are referring to, I see the seller has a good rating, so there was no reason for you to be suspicious. Hopefully, AA will help you resolve this issue. If not, then I think you should post this on their webforum. I do congratulate you on being so open minded, considering you are out of a pair of Atma's. If I were you, I would call Ralph and give him the serial numbers, if anyone tries to have them upgraded, you might be able to get them back. B |
