Hi guys....all I can say is.....If you use paypal for buying audio gear..ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS send through Paypal Merchandise and Sevices...NEVER..NEVER, NEVER Family and Friends..... I was convinced to use Family and Friends which is another story..but I got ripped off $11,000 Paid for a dac and never got it.....out $11k not easy to swallow.....
Fraud /SCAM
I recently bought an item with Audiogon. I bought the item on 10/06/2022 and the seller gave me a fake UPS tracking # 1Z62Y7Y80356214061. I believe the tracking number is fake because the item I bought weigh about 17.3 pounds and the item he sent was only 1.7 pounds.
He also entered the UPS tracking number via Paypal instead of entering the tracking information from Audiogon. His tracking information is showing that it was sent from Mesa, AZ but from his Audiogon listing, it is showing that he is from Atlanta, GA
I never receive my order but his fake ups tracking number is showing it was delivered 10/07/2022. I even checked my front door and found nothing. I did use Paypal and will create a dispute against this seller tomorrow. The seller is new to Audiogon.
Below is the Audiogon listing of the item I bought:
