caveat emptor

I've done what I could do in helping. Seams like I'm damned either way with you. I encourage you, Jea48, to become proactive as well.

I posted as soon as I saw the ad, but at the snails pace in which this forum system updates, well ....

I am less worried about sellers with a few obvious clues and more worried about the ones that have a good number of 100% feedback...

I was recently looking at a pair of cables from a seller. these cables were not the typical counterfeited Nordost or whoever else. They were from a small, but very well respected, boutique if you will, US cable maker. The seller refused to supply an in focus picture of the serial number or even tell me what the serial number was (s/n pic was the only one listed that was blurry in the ad). He also said he did not have the certificate of authenticity and that that was just a marketing ploy anyway. He downplayed and lied throughout our PM's.
There is more to the story now that involves the cable maker but I obviously will not talk about that...

The trouble is, this member has a high 100% feedback number but is obviously unscrupulous. These types of members that are harder to notice are the worrisome ones!

Thank you, Tgyeti
