I’d contact B&W Corporate and let them sort it out.

I have the following issues with my recently purchased 805d4.
The woofer housing appears to be scratched or has a poor finish.
I have requested an exchange.
The local dealer and the importer are giving me negative answers.
What is your opinion on this?
Thanks
How did you pay for these ? PayPal ,or credit card , first ship them back , ask for a replacement if they Donot , file a complaint . B& W on there lower line now all madein China, NG , this line is around $9k retail is that correct ? Any company. With any integrity have A QC dept , this should have never went into a box Everyhis is a disgrace you can tell them to you will file a complaint with the FTC Federal Trade Commision. Who did you buy these from , were they bought new from a store ? there is a lot of information left out . Email me or tell everyone on line ,no credible store would allow this this sounds like a scam. |
I have known the B&W brand for years , the inspect and pack each speaker in their top range which your speakers are ,anyone with half a brain 🧠 brain would inspect the polished head and see this defect , this should have been rejected at the plant and repainted. No driver ever should have went in there , this is a disgrace . I would send these literally 3-4 emails to B&W U.K ,as well as the distributor how long has this been ? You needto act on these NOW. how did you pay for these and how long ago ? Never put anything on layaway ,why you loose the 90. Day claims with credit card companies . We cant help you if you don’t explain these could be fakes also , I have never seen this condition ever in any stores or homes . |
@cfarrow @uncledemp @audioman58 I received a new communication today. |
Time is of the essence , how did you pay ? PayPal or stripe is preferred if not your credit card , and if in North America Never buy out ofthe country unless direct , even that you are not protected by U.S laws. They need to send you tracking you can confirm , and a return FedEx shipping label . you should not have to absorb any loss. You must have got a Big discount go to B&W website they will tell you how much they weigh shipped . I would also send B&W Now 2-3 emails with serial numbers and pictures and call them direct . On something over $5k I would be calling within 24 hours don’t become a victim call the U.k now they are 5 hours ahead ,I lived them and owned a Audio store there for years . Trust me Don’t wait be proactive !! |
