Sold Sold Sold

Has anyone had a scenario like this ? Was talking to love4audio about buying a Auralic streamer. Told him I'd be out of the country for a week and would buy when I got back. Well as soon as I reached the states I emailed him to get it done. No response, I emailed 3 times with no answer.  Upon looking at the ad it now says Sold. I believe this is wrong on so many  levels and I will never buy from this type of seller. What you say ?

I think @zappas (OP)  should send @love4audio a thank you note and small token of appreciation for saving him $400

This has at least been educational wrt on-line sales:

  • Communication - clarity, mutual agreement, and confirmation are necessary to avoid misunderstandings
  • Show Me the Money- the best way to secure an on-line transaction is to send payment as soon as the terms are agreed on
  • On-line Etiquette - Post your forum question in the spirit of gaining knowledge, without naming names, and without the intent of a preemptive strike to assign guilt

OP...As the old line goes "You Got Stoned and You Missed It"....wait for another on Audiogon or Reverb and move on dude. The seller sold it to a person ready to buy NOW, not his/her fault you delayed.

Now that we have heard from both sides of the story, IMHO, @zappas owes the dealer an apology for attempting to drag his name through the mud.

@zappas What you have done is give sellers a warning to consider not selling to you...
