>>Take this as you wish<<
I take this as a dealer pushing his product.
Like most of your responses.

@ricred1,
Agreed but some do it with a modicum of humility. |
>>We are not saying that we are necessarily better then any other dealer<<
LOL

@tatyana69
Well, that’s not good for you. Very soon audiotroy will be along to say:
1. What you heard wasn’t real or
2. What you heard was real but you weren’t listening correctly or
3. The amplification wasn’t what he sells or
4. The cables weren’t a brand he recommends or
5. The room wasn’t set up properly or
6. The source wasn’t revealing enough for the audition or
7. A listening session at his dealership will change your mind

I think you’re a shill.
That’s what I think. |
@mountainsong
At the onset of his recent sales novella, he asked me “do you think.......”
I simply felt compelled to answer that question and to your point regarding dealers I totally agree, absolutely necessary. However, we don’t need a constant barrage of salesmanship dispensed under the guise of experience and audio wisdom. The best dealer/members posting here don’t behave like a self absorbed know it all. Atmasphere, Audioconnection and Ramtubes illustrate my point.
Carry on.
|
Lastly, thanks for proving my point about you being a self absorbed egotistical opportunist using the forums for financial gain.
|
@mountainsong
Not a dealer anymore. That ended in 2014. Looks like you and fat boy aren’t paying attention.
|
Malibu? France? NYC. LOL
You have a double wide in Jersey City.
Hilarious.
|
My “invisible” store generated a net, not gross, profit of close to 7 figures in less than 10 years.
The “doctor” is right, we do not compete but he would find me a worthy adversary if that were to occur.
As we say in Hawaii, Mahalo. Enjoy the winter. LOL. |
Afterthought......
If you reread my posts, nowhere do I claim all 3 properties were purchased in that 10 year period.
Thank you.
|
@mofojo
That 10 year period represents only a very small percentage of my life’s income which included 35 years in corporate America.
Factor in salaries, 401K, IRA, stock options, bonuses, pensions, and social security it’s not all that difficult to own 3 properties given you begin saving early and manage your investments wisely.
Hope that helps. |
Seems to me posting a report on another dealer without identifying him, and/or giving him an opportunity to respond borders on unethical behavior.
|
You’re skirting the issue Lalin.
All the links don’t change the fact that what you did was highly unethical.
“Professional courtesy”? That’s funny. |
Lalin, my homes are settled business. It’s irrelevant now, get over it. You like Jersey City? That’s fine, I really don’t care.
Anyway to the point, you publicly criticized another dealer and his component arrangement. That would be all fine and dandy if we knew the dealer and/or he had a chance to respond to your opinions. If he doesn’t post here, identify him otherwise nothing you’ve claimed is believable. Basically it’s poppycock without verification.
Lastly, who’s to decide if the setup sounds good or bad? You? Not arbitrarily and certainly not without substantiation from independent listeners. Believe it or not you are not an audioracle (remember that moniker audioracle? That’s the moniker you used on Audiogon for years pushing your lines without disclosing your dealer status) Perhaps the dealer believes his arrangement his optimal but that’s for him to decide, not you.
You simply don’t like being called out Lalin, it bruises your oversized ego. Stop whining. |

@pops ,
Well pops, long time. Nice to hear you’re still kicking it.
Hope you’re well. |
@kot
Bad move kot. Audiotroy or audioracle or whatever Audiogon moniker he’s using this week will be along soon to point out how wrong you are in this opinion. |
Like a moth drawn to a flame.......

Up to this day (my life experience includes 4 years of undergraduate study BS, 2 years of post graduate study MBA, 4 years US Navy, and 30 years as an executive in the chemical industry) I’ve had the opportunity to travel on 4 continents meeting tens of thousands of people. Physicists, accountants, engineers, CEO’s, chemists, production workers, CFO’s, marketing managers, truck drivers, physicians, computer analysts, logistics managers, sales directors, etc. i.e employees from virtually all occupations representing many industries.
The common thread running through all these individuals is the very best of them, the leaders in their fields, the most knowledgeable, the crème de la crème if you will, never consider themselves “experts”. They are astute and wise enough to understand their limitations and shortcomings but instead realize they have much more to learn.
So when you read a chest thumping rooster proclaiming himself (herself) an “expert”, understand it’s almost always a self absorbed inflated ego making noise not expertise you’re hearing and please consider the agenda behind it.
|
You should expect nothing less.
Which one of his 3 Audiogon monikers was he using at the time?
