bad experiences buying on line


I am currently trying to get a piece of equipment I purchased on AudiogoN. I sent the gentleman payemnt almost a month ago and I keep getting lame excuses as to why it hasn't been sent. Am I the only one to have these problems?

You are entitled to be more than annoyed. I agree with Driver...call the fellow and demand your equipment or a refund. I would be careful to document everything and agree that contacting Audiogon would be prudent at this point. Good luck
Audiogon doesn't like this sort of stuff, let them know(as stated above) if you don't get the product or your money back they will more then likely create a dispute and in the end he could lose his membership- this isn't something to take laid back. When someone sends payment the product should ship out immediatly. What is the sellers feedback? it may be a good indication of what will happen. Good luck ~Tim
I had the same problem with a Canadian seller and I called the constable in the town where the guy lived . The constable went over to the guys house and made him ship the item and it got here about a week later. So if he's Canadian you can get somebody to do something.Good-luck
I too am having a bad experience but not as clear cut as yours. The seller shipped me some cables that were in terrible condition but graded 8/10. He is new to the site so I have laid it all out for him but he seems to be quite truculent and I regret that this one too may end up in a feedback war and eventually in Audiogon dispute resolution. As for your problem, it's time to send the seller an e-mail explaining that you are contacting Audiogon and then doing so. They can resolve many of these issues behind the scenes without making the dispute public. From past dealings with you I can say that you are an Audiogonner of the highest caliber and am dismayed that this would happen to you. Best of luck with it.

I wrote to the guy and told him if he did not respond to my e-mail I would contact AudiogoN and the district attorney in his town. When I said this he finally responded and claimed to just have gotten back from vacation. That was on Monday. Today I tried to get the tracking numbers of the package and he informed me he had sold the Phono Section to someone else and would be sending my money back. I am dissatisfied with this but haven't told him yet. I don't want the money I want the piece!!! I wonder if I could/should still go after him? It's been over a month now.
