How can I punish this Chinese audio dealer

I ordered three pairs of tubes from him last year.

The dealer used to respond to my e-mail within 2 days with fast shipping.

The Psavne Acme 805 tube went bad after 7 days of use.


But with claim of bad tube, he stopped responding to me at all..

I sent him 6 e-mail within 7 days.


Will Paypal refund be the best way to punish him?

I received Acme 805 tube yesterday.

PSVANE Acme Serie 805 Vacuum Tube High-end tube Be


Please note that both tube are made by same company Psvane.

Cossor valve was league above from stock tube with refined bass and deeper bass.


As soon I replaced Cossor Valve 805 with Acme 805 today, I noticed clear window of transparency and more details.

It seem like I had inserted pre amp since the change was so drastic.

The soundstage got wider with 3-d holographic with clear window.



It had not been burnt yet so it may be possible to change its sound for the next 2 weeks.

But the first impression is very positive.

I will keep you informed of the progress.

I also have pair of NOS United 805 tubes which I had not used yet.

After Acme got fully broken in, I will also compare it with NOS United.

In the end trying to punish anyone just punishes you . Move on .
I have no doubt that , as elizabeth said, at this stage all NOS tubes are used . Except for the ones that are just plain fakes that is .

Update on the situation.

Since I was busy with some other thing, I had not filed complaint with Paypal yet.

It seems that somehow the dealer read message belatedly (about 1 week later).

If it works out fine, I will update it again.

I guess you can call off that air strike. 

My dark humor aside, it's good to hear that they'll try to rectify your situation.

All the best,

If it works fine,then I will call off the air strike.

And I will  update if they cooperate with the situation well.

The only bad thing is that I had not got response from the dealer for 10 days even after sending 5 emails.

I was pretty upset.

But if I get the replacement tube pretty soon, then I can recommend this dealer again with good price and fast shipping.
