Actual Lead Time on Tekton Speakers


Hi All-

I've had a pair Tekton speakers and a sub on order since the last week of February. When I placed the order they said they were running 8-10 weeks for shipment. I knew at the time that these were made to order and that there was a substantial lead time, so I'm not complaining. But I'm like a kid on Christmas Eve...

Can anyone who has recently received their speakers tell me how long it was from order to shipping? 

Thanks,

however if you did not use PayPal and are on your own, you have to decide what your end goal is here. If you find that you’re done dealing with Tekton you may just want to contact a lawyer in Orem, UT, send them your documentation and have them open a suit in the district court. You can sue for a refund plus legal expenses. And if everything you are saying is accurate, there should be no problem winning the case. However, I don’t think Tekton will let it go that far. They will have to pay your lawyer fees and their own. Only to lose the case. I’m guessing that the bill of materials on a set of Moabs is about $2500 or so. It’s very likely that you will get your refund plus legal expenses from Tekton and Tekton will walk away from the $2500 + shipping cost loss to avoid the legal expenses. It’s the least expensive way out for them. 
Welcome to ‘Murcia.
Winning friends and influencing people, you really are Italian.

Unless I am missing something here the party you should be going after is the carrier. They are the one contracted to deliver. Tekton tendered the shipment, it is the carrier now you must deal with. Your legalistic approach will never fly. But it figures, a guy who can’t find anyone with a truck, and thinks it costs $400 in gas to go 450km (a mini-measure unit of distance, not even 300 miles, $400 would go more like 2000 miles) is probably exaggerating and misrepresenting everything else as well.

This is why I take a real hard look at stories like these. There is always another side, and whoever is aggrieved is always presenting only the worst side of it. The last one I recall dropped his story like a hot rock the minute he was asked for details.

Sad fact of the matter is we have some people here who love nothing more than to go around wrecking the lives of anyone they can. Believe me, seen it up close and personal. You got a problem, deal with it. Get your transportation, get your speakers. They are a helluva lot closer now than they were in Utah. So you have to find a truck and drive. Big deal. Been there. Done that. Didn’t go whining all over the interwebs.

That is, I will say it again, the difference between a can-do American and your typical run of the mill euroweenie.

And you , mc at your arrogant condescending best



Keep messing around they’re gonna disappear for a couple of months and you’ll pay a HERO finders fee and STILL pay for the delivery..

This is ALL transportation issues, nothing to do with the shipper/seller or the customer.

You're barkin’ up the wrong tree, even suggesting the use of a lawyer. BUT if you do go to Spain 1/2 the population are lawyers.. Hire a US lawyer, talk about a pure waste of time.. They charge 5-10 time the shipping coast and you’ll never recover their cost in a court EVEN if you get the judgement.. You still have to collect.. Good luck with that. That’s another 5-10 times the amount. Pay the cost and pick up your stuff and settle later. You got ZERO leverage.. I hope you got 100% in the smarts department.

Wait till they start charging for storage...I’ve had that happen on the docks.. 600 euro a day for a 20 foot container. 21 days it sat in customs tied up because it was shipped with fluids or something like that or the wrong type of enviro hydraulic fluid..(Payola) Rota Spain.

Instead of paying someone to change the oil (my suggestion) they waited 21 days and still had to do it under duress and of course a much higher cost for doing it.. They knew, the mechanics.. Payola..

Are you a boss or a manager or something? LOL

Think about what is really going to happen.. Fast forward 20 days, where are you gonna be?
