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.

I have a Set of Altec 604-8's in altec 612 Cabinets on eBay. I would never attempt to ship them. The Package Monkeys would destroy them if shipped.They are pick up only. As stated above 99% are tire kickers. I get emails all the time with questions that don't make sense.

In this world of places to advertise Audio gear which are many. Expect the prolific tire kicker. If I get an offer through email,I know it's a tire kicker. If the offer comes thru eBay it is an official offer. One that I can accept or decline.
