    I don't have any problems with any shipping carrier. I've used my wife's company to pack and ship.....I think he does not work there anymore since i shipped SONY 9000ES and it was damaged. I felt sorry for the buyer in Polk Forum here.....

    okay, enough about me....

    yep that was me. It came in an old WORE out box that had a small table cloth for padding...I was so freaking mad, but then i thought I could use it for parts and that failed also....

    anyone need a door stop?

    Well....the topic has been about trolls...PFB. And hot women. At least that's what I gathered from it all.

    So what's up?
    IS PFB employed?
    Did his wife ever come back?
    Did he wreck his Porsche yet?
    Will someone post another hot Pic?

    Check out PFB response to ANYTHING! Narcissistic drivel that is self perpetuating because we can't look away. I've tried. I can't.

    Kinda like a wreck with fatalities on the highway.

    Yes, I monitor all of the threads and while this one is not my idea of what is interesting in an audio discussion it doesn't yet merit closing or excessive censoring.
    It seems to be a typical posting by PFB, seemingly intentionally controversial and certainly popular. As long as it doesn't become excessively abusive or ribald it can remain.

    I'll try to say this in the most endearing way, PFB is like the Michael Scott of Club Polk Forum.

    Do moderators monitor these threads, or does anything go here?
    I would suggest that this entire thread be deleted as it reflects poorly on this forum and Polk Audio.


    THIS is friggin' PRICELESS coming from you! Are you serious? lol

    Some people just can't see their own faults even when everyone else can.

    Maybe this will have you coming back, another tube amp arrived smashed today via fedex. I told the guy not to use ups because Ihad two arrived smashed. Well the tubes are smashed up in the BAT because of the terrible packing job.

    I told the seller today that the damage has nothing to do with fedex and that is was his fault. The broken shards from the large power tube is all overthe box and also inside the amp itself. I will load a couple of pics up andi am sure manywill agree with my statement. I am almost at the end of my tether and I am a patient guy.

    I suppose you have pics of this too? Oh no, that's right, we're still waiting for the ones
    from your deal with ZLTFUL, two weeks ago and counting.

    Hey Brock good to see you peek in here now and then.

    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    He doesn't own a Porsche. He bought a used Boxster.
