Cables and Power supplies are whole separate components to audiophiles. They can fetch thousands of dollars. Just because a power cord comes with electrical “appliances “ doesn’t mean they should come standard on an Audiophile site. We aren’t buying and reselling toasters here. Should the buyer expect a pair of speakers as well? After all you can’t listen to an amp without having a transducer, now can you?
Would appreciate a group consensus on Agon purchased amps
Hello all,
I purchased and recieved a pair of Bel Canto Amps form a fellow Agonner. Amps were well packaged - I paid extra for shipping with Fed Ex as the seller wanted to use UPS. I was informed prior to the sale that he did not have original boxes, and he did package them very well - no issues there.
The question I have is would any of you be bothered if you bought a pair of amps form someone on this forum and they shipped both of them without any power cables?
I rang him and inquired about the missing cables and he informed me that he did not use stock cables for any of his equipment - and the next sentance suggested that I go on Amazon and purchase "$3 dollar cables" for them. (his words).
Also, I sent an email to Bel Canto support inquiring about replacement cables for the amps and after one week have not gotten a response from them. I also find this unusual, but it has nothing to do with the seller.
For me this is a matter of principle, and I feel like I should send them back - I would rather pay more and go through a dealer next time just so I can have some level of client care.
Am I making more of this than is necessary?
What would you do?
Thanks for taking the time to review.
