That Other Audiophile Website


I purchased a cd player from a seller on that other audiophile website. When I took it out of the box it reeked of cigarette smoke. I contacted the seller and got nowhere. I contacted that other website. I was told it's the buyers responsibility to investigate the seller before making a purchase.  I gave the seller a negative review. My review was removed, and I was banned from making further comments about my experience. Almost a month later I'm still trying to get a refund. PayPal is going to try and help me. Talk about unethical. Anyone have a similar experience?

I purchased a CD player on this website a number of years ago with the same issue. Seller never stated it came from a smoke free home and I never asked. I learned my lesson. If that is the same as your condition I would suggest getting used to it, cleaning the unit, or sell it stating it came from a smoking environment. Now if it was advertised as being from a smoke free environment that’s a different story. But to suggest other websites are shams because of that incident in my opinion isn’t accurate. Hope it works out for you though.
+1 for USAXXXXXmart!!! Very pleased with all transactions. Buyer needs to be thorough on any website they do business with.
" @Millercarbon that was classless your response. Go peddle some Raven and Moabs. Dill."

This is what I meant for the OP to do that MC suggested.

" Remove the cover. Wipe it down real good with alcohol, inside and out. The cover, not the electronics, although get as much of that as you safely can. Replace cover."

Then add the odor eliminator. I have done this before and it works great.
