    Wow! Still haven't gotten it??? What was that about shipping on Thursday and providing tracking info? I understand people can get busy and tied up with things and all, but delaying like this? :confused: I don't know the whole story, but if he couldn't get it out to you in a timely manner, it might have been better if he held off posting a sale in the FM to begin with. At least until he got his issues worked out. Sorry to hear about your difficulties with this Mike. I know this kind of frustration. :(

    sd he got called in to work thursday. was supposed to ship friday. no call. i got him on the phone today. said he got called into work friday. promised shipping and a call today. nothing. wont even pick up the phone:mad:

    at this point, i just want my frkg money back

    He has already been given the benefit of doubt. He's a loser. Hope it works out.

    Give me his phone number and all other info you have on him. I'm not in a real good mood tonight.

    Yeah ... at this point, he is really ... I mean really ... stretching the definition of "benefit of the doubt". This is so effin' messed up, it makes me want to shout (and drink more wine).

    Sorry for the rant. I hope he clears things up. All hope is not lost. He needs to send the gear, or refund the money at this point IMO. His own problems, no matter how dire, are not an excuse for everything. I'll give him until Friday next week to come clean, and that's really being über nice IMO. A bit of a disgrace to his Scottish origins thus far, but thats no consolation to sdabeliever. This just makes me mad, so I had better stop reading this thread.
    Alea jacta est!

    Look: you can make excuses if you like, but I'm beginning to think you are just one of them newbies that have been aggravating Ricardo recently ...

    I sure hope you eventually get satisfaction out all of this sad2mike. Nothing worse than trusting someone and being let down. Good luck in all of this BS.

    well i just talked to this 'stand-up' guy. through our conversation, he hung up on me 4 times. he said i need to have more patience and trust and stop being such an ****! no apologies for all the times he said he would send it out and didn't. then he starts in with a mocking additude. he is really not smart! said i'm the first **** he's run into after a thousand transactions!

    seems to think his work schedule is the most important thing in the world. meanwhile, i'm out $318 and he can't fulfill his obligations.the best is when he said he was gonna come down here and kick my ****! little boy mentality

    the only reason he called is because i called him numerous times or more likely i contacted his best friend thru Facebook

    he said he gave me a 'smoking deal' and that i was a **** since day 1.....he didn't have an answer though,to explain why he would proceed forward and take my money

    Who knows what problems this guy has Mike. You aren't going to fix them. You just want your amp or money back quickly.

    My guess is that he has spent your money so that's not an option.

    He may not even have the money to ship your amp.

    Maybe you can ask him to ship it COD. No forget that.

    Ask him to bring the amp to a place that ships and packs equipment and let that place contact you for payment. You don't want him packing this amp. This is the best way out I think for you.

    Sorry and I understand your position but calling him names will not help you get the amp.
