On the phone they were okay with taking it back, crediting me and they sent me a Fedex slip for the return. I only had to drop it off at FedEx, which was okay with me even though I had to get into the car and drive 15 minutes to the nearest office. When I called and pointed out that they only credited $27 for a product I had payed $200 dollar for they claimed that was the value. So apparently they were selling me a $27 dollar worth useless amp for $200, got my money, got the crap back and kept the balance. That is an interesting business model. Now, the same amp actually sells for around $200 in most shops. After a long talk they agreed to look into it. Well, they better. This is nothing short of a scam. And I won't put up with it. As they record all phone calls I'm sure they have on record that they agreed to credit the faulty product in full. Problem is that I also value my time, and peace of mind, and shit like this is tiring.Tore Claessonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978163002830730401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072420181476584961.post-46466860597412172032008-12-08T10:45:00.000-05:002008-12-08T10:45:00.000-05:00stories like this one belong in a book!
