    I've just now contacted Ted to confirm his address is still the same. The Gammas are boxed up and ready to go now.

    Yes, I botched this transaction, yes I forgot about the stupid pair of Auralex Grammas. To be fair, it should be mentioned THIS WAS A LOCAL PICKUP DEAL. Ted picked up a pile of acoustic treatments for a HUGE discount from MSRP, and he was FREE AT ANY TIME to say something like "hey I'm not pleased with the value I'm receiving here so I'm going to walk away with my cash" or "gee, where are those Gramma platforms". Yes, I botched it, but this is a VERY IMPORTANT distinction.

    Not that any of that will matter since you all have quite a nice momentum going to your bashing...enjoy!

    Mike,
    As usual, lack of communication is what got things rolling here. I sent you a PM over a week ago at HeadFi and you ignored it. You could have come out immediately and cleared the air. I was trying to save you from things getting this bad.

    UPS tracking #:
    1Z8E84710370831678

    It takes a few hours to show up in that system, however you can track it immediately with the Shipment ID: MMM5VVBB0HERW at the UPS Store tracking site:

    Ok, I looked up my Paypal records and I was partially mistaken - Ted did not hand over cash at pickup, he did send Paypal payment in advance before pickup. Still, I assume he drove away content with the pile of treatments.

    Here's what I advertised:
    $350 total, local pick-up only, for:
    2 GIK Tri-Traps ($258 + ship new)
    8 of the Auralex SonoFlat panels ($180 for a pack of 8 new)
    2 GIK 244 panels (new - $130 + ship new)
    14 Auralex LENRDs ($476 new)
    2 Auralex Grammas ($100 new)

    Ted offered $300 which I accepted. He picked up all but the 2 Grammas that we both forgot about, and have been collecting dust ever since. Grammas have now been shipped, tracking # above.

    There's something fishy about this whole story. Mike said that Ted used PAYPAL.

    The universe is now upside down...I don't know what to believe anymore. :eek:

    Is it possible that tubes DON'T rule....:confused:

    Maybe PAYPAL rules and TUBES suck.....It's so confusing....:(

    Crap! Does it mean I have to think again whether to get a Tube pre or Tube Buffer. :confused::p

    Oh come on, you can do better than that! Why don't you at least dredge up some 4 year old thread with a useless response!

    To further clear things up:
    I found an old PM from Ted dated April 2008, after treatments were picked up:
    Michael,

    Hope you are well. I have been trying out the tiles in various places and having some fun with them. I did want to ask you though, when we made the deal I thought the auralex sub-woofer stands were included, did I just forget to get them or did something change along the way?
    To which I replied: yes, I forgot the Gramma platforms, give me your address and I'll ship them out. YES, I effed up by forgetting to add them to the pile at pickup, and AGAIN by sitting on them for so ridiculously long after I said I'd ship them out, with no communication. Ted just curious, no this is not an offer - would you send back all those treatments you did receive, minus the Grammas, for the $300 Paypal'd?

    Send Ted an email, give Ted a call, or send a PM. Apologize and don't play this out on the Forum.

    Ted did what he had to do and inform the membership of the situation. It's our obligation to look out for each other.
