    Well the saga continues, I got a m from a guy days before asking if I new the serial numbers of the wilsons I was selling. I though he just had the wrong listing so I gave him the serial number 8008135, for those that dont know it spells boobies on a calculator. Well after talking that he was offering me 10k and it turns out there was a bunch of fraud listings and the buggers even changed my home add to a European one.

    Tony whilst talking about audio stuff, I bought a stage center channel from audiogon and just assumed it was fine. I took it out the box 3 days ago after having it 3 weeks and the driver is floating around inside. It took the guy nearly two weeks to send it so now my paypal protection is gone. The guys selling some 10k krell preamps and cables but he wont even answer any questions. He never used the right packaging from the factory and substituted one side with cheapo bubble wrap.

    For ignoring me I think I should leave bad feedback but I was trying to give him a chance to at least respond. I bet if one of you guys asked him for a best offer on one of his items he would answer in a second.

    I don't even think he's a real person. Even his existence is b.s.

    PFB,
    That's exactly the point....open it up when you get it, make sure you got what you paid for and it works. Not 3 weeks later. Your flipping gear to make money....this should be second nature to you by now. C'mon man...use some common sense in these things.

    Welcome back, my friends
    to the show that never ends.
    We're so glad you could attend!
    Come inside! Come inside!
    There behind a glass
    stands a real blade of grass
    be careful as you pass.
    Move along! Move along!
    Come inside, the show's about to start
    guaranteed to blow your head apart
    Rest assured you'll get your money's worth
    The greatest show it happens a hell-of-alot.
    You've got to see the show, it's a dynamo.
    You've got to see the show, it's rock and roll
    Right before your eyes,
    We'll pull laughter from the skies
    And he laughs until he cries,
    then he dies, then he dies
    Soon the Gypsy Queen
    in a glaze of Vaseline
    Will perform on guillotine
    What a scene! What a scene!
    Next upon the stand
    will you please extend a hand
    to Alexander's Ragtime Band
    Dixieland, Dixieland
    Roll up! Roll up! Roll up!
    See the show!
    Performing on a stool
    we've a sight to make you drool
    Seven virgins and a mule
    Keep it cool. Keep it cool.
    We would like it to be known
    the exhibits that were shown
    were exclusively our own,
    All our own. All our own.
    Come and see the show!
    Come and see the show!
    Come and see the show!
    See the show!

    ^^^Ahhh, a little ELP to start my day !

    I use the phrase, "Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends" quite frequently at work. I've thought about running away and joining the circus, at least they have what appears to be effective management.
    and just assumed it was fine.

    I see a pattern forming.

    I think you need to call the NSA and request a drone strike. Just make sure you provide THEIR address and not your own.

    Just a suggestion PFB, but ever think about giving up the flipping of audio gear ? Maybe you'd have better luck buying and selling ball scratchers on EBAY.

    Let it go, if you are dumb enough (and clearly you are) to not inspect your purchase within the window of time to file a claim, then you deserve everything you get.

    P.s. It's one thing to be clueless, but it's an entirely different thing to never learn a lesson.

    Yes it took 4 emails to finally get them to reinstate it, they have also credited my account with the paypal balance that was used up from the fraudulent listings.
