High Eng Audio Auctions on Ebay does not honor their deals


Purchased a pair of Eminent Technology LFT-VI speakers from them off Ebay and they delayed shipping for a week  saying that their staff had contracted COVID.
Yesterday they said that they cannot ship the speakers because the shipping was too low and asked for money to ship them to me. 
Very disappointed with the way they conduct their business.

The shipping costs were advertised as such and were not cheap. If they made a mistake, they should have kept their side of the deal or informed me immediately after I paid. Instead they delayed shipping and gave the excuse that they were closed for COVID and then only yesterday (a week later) say that it would cost more. So they were not transparent from the beginning. I suspect someone offered them a higher amount after I had made the purchase and that is whom the speakers will go to now. I don't think it will be advertised again on Ebay.

Adam? I find that extremely doubtful. If they were only after the highest dollar, they would have never accepted the offer I made on the amp I purchased, significantly under their asking price (or make offer). I expected them to counter, but they did not. No doubt, I’m sure they could have sold it for more. But, to my surprise, accepted my offer, and shipped the amp out promptly, and professionally packaged and boxed.

Overall, a great amp, and a great transaction.

And they do not have a large staff, so the COVID thing was probably legit, not an excuse.
I bought two items from them. Both transactions were "wonky". I bought a pair of Snell speakers. I picked them up. They were advertised as in excellent working condition. When I hooked them up something was off. I then noticed that all mid woofers were delaminated. The seller said they had no idea where to get replacement drivers. (odd them being in the business). They did offer a refund. I would have had to drive them back. I decided to keep them as I did get a steal of a deal. Highendaudioactions canceled the sale on EBay so I couldn't leave feedback. Second item was an Esoteric CD player. They advertised it as in perfect working order. It wasn't. I returned it. They balked at EBay that the problem was with me. The player went back on their site. It sold again. It turned up again for sale one month later For Sale As IS! My experience. Joe
I have sold hundreds of items on Ebay. Occasionally, I price the shipping too low. In every instance I eat the loss since it's my fault. What the seller did to you is not a good way to do business.
