That stinks. Sorry for your bad luck. Hopefully, PayPal gets your money back.
Merason dac MK1 on audio mart
Well, all good things must come to an end. I got conned on a recent audio mart listing on the Merason dac MK1, which I’ve been wanting, and jumped on it when I saw it. Turns out it’s a multi-person fraud ring. Be warned as the seller had good feedback, which I realize now anyone can do, especially if it’s organized. Just spoke with pay pal and they let me know there is already a flag on this seller from someone else and they are investigating.
Once the payment went through, all of a sudden, the communication completely changed to awkward old english with misspellings and a claim that the seller was out of the country and coming in a week. With so many red flags I immediately knew what must be happening and asked for a refund, which was refused. And then the seller said he sent me several emails saying he was out of the country, which isn’t true and isn’t even in the thread that we had, which proves it.
Hope this helps, as I don’t want anyone else to have this happen to them.

I had a similiar thing happen on an Auralic Streamer...I used paypal...and low and behold they made me whole. But I would recomend filing a dispute asap. I did three days after the sale...when communication quit..paypal went right ahead and started the process. took about a month...but I got my money back. |
@scp good to know I'm not alone. I filed a dispute right away. Now waiting the 30 days. Makes me very wary of buying anything through audio sites. Will stick with TMR, Eco or god forbid, full price dealer lol! |
@chason678 Thanks for the heads up. It was something I was potentially thinking about. Have you flagged his ad on USAudioMart? |
