Audiohifistore.com is a SCAM


I personally know an individual who was scammed by this website and lost money. The website looks legitimate with actual photos of equipment, but the equipment was never delivered. The manufacturer of the equipment was able to verify the serial number of the equipment, so it looked legit, but this is a very slick scam. Beware!

Moral of the story: use a trusted seller.

Just checked out their site.

The only payment they accept is bank wire transfer.

They explain this by saying it’s so they can pass the lack of credit card fee on to you and so to verify you are really who you say you are.

That red flag could cover the Isle of Man.

 

 

The Isle of Man does seem like an odd location to stockpile 1M in high end audio gear.

 

thanks for the heads up. 

noone sane would EVER use a non-recourse method of payment ! always pay pal for goods or services or credit cards !

There was a scam hi fi equipment site purporting to operate out of Ireland a couple of years ago. They had an address published on their website but when I checked out the location on Google Maps, it was a brass plate operation - no physical presence there at all. BTW, I was checking for business reasons, not because I was contemplating buying anything from them.
