Denafrips/Vinshine not everything they were built up to be.


Just a FYI for the AG members, as that is how I (second handedly) got the info that there would be no worries.... Vinshine that as you know is the sole world wide distributor of Denafrips. 
I placed an order with Vinshine on April 4th and sat back to see just how long this adventure would or could take. I never received any communication after the e-mail that stated my order was in. So this past Monday (approximately 5 weeks) I sent them an e-mail inquiring as to the status of my order. It took a couple days, due to time differences, but out of nowhere dated yesterday (5/13/21) is a shipping number and packing list. Nothing else... no sorry about the delay, I know this must look strange your shipment all of a sudden going?????
There were those of you that said, no way... I wouldn't do it. And, what about warranty. 
I've been a member here 14 years and never posted anything. You guys need another unknown voice like a hole in the head. I just read my Friday Forum Highlights like my mom used to read her National Inquirer. But thought I would at least alert you to seemingly some strange goings on at Denafrips.

Chip shortage is primarily due to the AKM fire, but I should have know better than posting to this group. I owned my own business for 40 years that involved taking orders, creating either shippers or packing list OR create a back order. If someone contacted me after five weeks and all of a sudden the product is available for immediate shipping.... "something strange is going on." 
I have been and continue to be in "rolling back order" situations. In all cases there have been communications.... The thing that keeps countries out of war. This was intended to be an FYI for the group.... No More!
As I said, I have been reading all of you religiously for 14 years, As far as handling a little push back.... I have only read that type of "welcome" dozens of times, I mean a decade and a half? To the point that one of you says something to the "judge", as is how I felt by the first retort. 
After what I considered what I read here regarding Vishine, I felt comfortable to proceed. Of course we made mistakes, BUT when we did I personally called our customer to apologize and make sure things were taken care of to his or her satisfaction.
Had a couple of errors with Morrow Audio.... Mike called me personally. 
Fuzztone, I do not mean to cause Denafrips any sales, it is a a potentially shaky purchase, but I read and watch a lot of reviews and they always are at or near top dog. I even told whomever received my email that I want one of their DAC's but wanted to see how this goes first.
Now I get taken to the principles office???? Alvin.
jjss49.... tell Alvin I am a retired American citizen and AG member for 14 years. Tell him I am the son of a 30 year career vet of WWII, Korea and Vietnam. Bronze Star, Purple Heart. That is who raised me. I don't even know what "click bait" is but the fact that some of you say and discuss things like THAT out to the public really PISSES ME OFF!
Tell Alvin that!
