Not selling Cardas cables online again, just wanted to share.....


After being a member with Audigon for 22 years with only positive feedbacks, this was the first. Sold a set of authentic Cardas Golden Reference Interconnects to a guy in the US who has good feedback. He paid via Paypal and all was good. Then, he sends me a note saying left cable is not working and the cable looks like its fake. Send images of a fake cable to the moderator and everything goes on hold.

Of course, he reaches out to Paypal and my full payment was on hold. After sending all the pics and shipping document with customs paper to Paypal. He is getting his money back and I am going to get a set of fake Cardas cables as a gift from him as a return. I have to take my other Cardas cable off the ad and look for local sale to avoid such things from happening again...sad but true.

*Audiogon has been very good by providing the necessary support from both ends.

Lesson learned: Take as many pics you have of the product being sold and include them into the ad and also keep extras as a safe guard for such events.

On the Friends and Family subject, sometimes I have used the suggestion of Friends and Family as a test.  

Me:  " You seem like an honest fellow and after exchaging a few emails I think you are honest, lets say we do friends and family and save 3%?"

Often the immediate response to that question can give you some insight.  If they politely decline and say something that seems right, that is good.  If they over-react to your suggestion, you might be concerned that they plan to scam you.
