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 ???????  .

Auto spec,

I know you received those tracking numbers but have you received the unit yet?
Will, even if this works out, I think you were a bit naive and gave this seller too much slack. When communication ceases it usually indicates an issue. Everyone has global access to email etc. "I was on a trip" isn't valid in today's world. After a few days of "MIA" behavior, you need to take action.
I agree that Paypal is a great help in these situations and would only do long distance transactions with Paypal and/or credit card fraud protections. Cheers,
Spencer
For a small fee i would drive there from Pittsburgh PA., And settle this matter for you, and I'd take a few buddies and we'll ride our Harley's !!  Good luck !!
we are a litigious society, hire a lawyer in the city, country where you mailed the item. You might want to get him to hire a PI to make it easier to find him and convince him.
