DO NOT SELL OR BUY FROM THAILAND

I admit, I fell for a scammer from Thailand, even though I was warned. It just was that it took forever to sell my Stealth cables at a give away price. These cables are awesome, but evidently not popular in the USA. I refused to send the cables to the buyer because he wanted me to declare the value at $30 USD for custom fees. So he had me direct the shipment to his friend in SoCal. Now, after UPS (and I insured the cables for $4,000 to save on shipping-my fault) delivered the package, the buyer says his friend did not sign and receive the cables! Just be aware A-Gon members, and don't be foolish like me.

Tubegrover, all gear is system dependent. The Stealth speaker cables I had were awesome in my system, but I on a personal note, I needed more slam and body. However with my new cables I did sacrifice the deep sound stage. I have a $24,00.00 pre, $36,00.00 speakers, $15,00.00 amp, $10,00.00 Runco, $7500.00 DAC. I and have been in this obsession since 1973, when I decided  in high schaool to spent all my money on a stereo system instead of a muscle car.

talk2me,

The OP is entitled "DO NOT SELL OR BUY FROM THAILAND". And now you claim "I am not saying anything against the great country of Thailand". Does anyone notice the contradiction?

Their are scammers and good people in every country. What i hate so much is some of the US peeps claims that the rest of the world are scammers and its safer to do business locally. That’s total crap. Iv come accross alot of scammers in the USA too and been ripped off by US sellers more than anyone else outside the USA.

You don’t see me posting telling the rest of the world stay away from the USA???


Its pot luck.

dragon_vibe,

I have also been scammed by more sellers and buyers from the US than from any other country. But this does not prevent me from doing business with the US. It all comes down to honest people and dishonest people. It's the luck of the draw no matter what country we are talking about.
