My audiogon story. Posted a Classe pre-amp in perfect condition. Buyer from West coast bid and I accepted. He called a week later and said amp was defective. He said he put a power supply on it and it and it failed.! I said send it back and refunded all his money. I checked the pre-amp on return and it was perfect. He had tested the pre-amp on a low voltage input and the pre-amp had gone into auto-protect mode. Seller beware of idiots.
Sellers Beware
I would like to inform the Audiogon Community about an individual I tried to do business with and hopefully what happened to me will not happen to others.
An individual, Frank, made me an offer on my speakers. I accepted his offer. He then sends an email asking how much freight will cost and he wanted the least expensive. A legit question. I informed him about clicking on Audiogon’s Get Cost for the freight cost and I proceeded to tell him I would take the speakers to USPS and get an actual cost for him.
This was all by email. I asked him to please make an official offer through Audiogon. He never did. I have not heard a word from him since 5/30 when he asked about the freight cost.
My thoughts are this individual should not be trusted.
Have other members had experiences like this? I have sold quite bit on Audiogon and never had a problem before.
