I had the same experience a few years ago where they advertised discount on B&W etc. I sent $4000 to them for new 801 III's and waited for 3-4 months. Finally with verbal threats which usually do nothing to people like this I did receive a certified bank check which was good via Fed Ex. I know I was very lucky and now the rules now that Drrdiamond stated. I also noticed since then a very similar ad that is in the for sale items of Stereophile (where I found mine) is now a different company name offering discounts on B&W's, etc. BTW I then went as fast as I could to my local dealer to pick up my new pair of 801 III's and have been very happy since. I am very picky about my stuff and wanted them mint and new. If it is too good to be true, it probably is. Glad to hear you got your cash back.
When you buy things online/phone order-Try to avoid...
Remember try to avoid things like discount/cash back...with prepayment by personal check/money order...Always pay by credit cards because they have a protection if problem occurs.
I was trapped by a company in Atlanta. They offered 20% off with personal check prepayment for speakers. Speakers never come. I called them everyday-they kept promise next week, next month, they are on the way...but never see speakers. I had to go through a legal court system and it took me more than a year to take my money back. This is my experience to share with you.
