BE VERY CAREFUL OF YOUR DEALINGS ON AUDIO-ASYLUM


I have entered in to some dealings on Audio Asylum trader that are less than honorable......I made a deal with a established dealer to trade some rather expensive Atma-Sphere amplifiers for some basket case Altec amps.......After sending the well packed and insured amps , they where received in good order to the Audio Asylum dealer.......Keeping in mind that this dealer made no effort to ship my part of the deal during the week his amps were shipped....After no less than ten phone calls he tells me he doesn't know how to pack them, so I told him to take them to a "Pack and Ship" store and ship them....I would share the cost of shipping..........He has now fell off the face of the earth....no calls, no e-mails, no nothing......he will not answer the phone or in anyway communicate at all........Later this week I will put his Audio-Asylum business name on here.....What are your thoughts on this ???????  .

Great news autospec!
I’ve been buying a lot more things (mail order) since moving to the country, and worry a bit each time I do.

 I’m glad this worked out for you.

For anyone else with similar problems.
Since the transaction involved the internet and a money transfer, this is a federal matter.
As a social worker I know how to use the system. When this happened to me, I phoned the FBI Internet Fraud Division nearest the dealer, and spoke with the head agent. I requested he send a letter to the dealer warning him of consequences. Instead, he personally showed up at the dealer's place of business! The dealer then phoned me in a panic and I received a full refund. The system is there for you, you just need to use it. 
I'm sorry when anyone has problems with out AsylumTrader site. However, we warn everyone to always use a credit card or Paypal to avoid problems. The reality is our only leverage is banning posters and deleting ads. It isn't because we don't care, it just true.

If the person is a long term member, then we will contact them and try to resolve the problems. In this case, the first that I heard about it is this morning when one of our members emailed me to take a look at this thread. I haven't seen any emails from the poster here, none.

If someone wants to alert us, it's easy. Every ad has an link in the upper left: Flag Ad: Miscategorized  Spam or Suspicious 

Folks should contact us directly rather than complaining elsewhere.

I presume the 'tracking numbers' were genuine and finally got your result from the deal?
