Hey - What Happened to the Beware of Viking Acoustics Thread


Just wondering what happened to the thread detailing Viking Acoustics' recent poor customer service tactics.  Poof and its gone.

They are gone.  Like my friends Montgomery Gentry said Viking is

Gone like a freight train
Gone like yesterday
Gone like a soldier in the Civil War
Bang Bang!
Gone like a '59 Cadillac
Like all the good things, that ain't never comin' back

I bought trade-in Tubemasters from David on eBay in December.  I was very fortunate to get them after much delay and bullspit excuses.  I was warned he was hanging by a thread and probably was foolish to pull the trigger.  He was still soliciting $25k deposits for speakers it was clear he wasn't ever going to build.  I heard from a good customer of his that David called him and said he's out of business.  No inventory, no money.  Adios.

Just Gone.  Not good.

I know that it won't do anything to compensate for your financial loss and your terrible experience, but I just wanted to say that I believe everything that you said, and I'm glad that you had the guts to stand by your story. Best of luck to you.

For those that doubted my story, several other customers have had the same experiences since I posted. This includes a good customer like me who also had his speakers stolen and sold to someone else. I’ve heard Viking is now out of business.
