Yeah - they're a bunch of goofballs. 
Questions that Never Die
With the pandemic, do people have a lot of time on their hands? 
How do I pay?
I'm going to echo what others have said.  DON'T DO IT!!!  There are plenty of speakers on sale from sellers with feedback.  Be patient.   
At wits' end with radio through the speakers!
I had a bad interconnect (connected from amp to tubed phonostage) which was picking up radio interference. Switched with identical interconnects connected to streamer, no interference after that.  Didn't affect the performance of the streamer at a...

Kuzma 4 Point Tonearm
This is the first that I've heard someone say that the 4 Point is ugly/boring. I guess to each his own.

Send it to VAS Audio.  Steve will retip for around $250 - but, best to call him for an exact quote and discuss options (upgrades).  He repairs tons of Denon's and knows what he's doing.  His turnaround time may also be better than Soundsmith. Cart... 
How to physically move large heavy 100lb amplifiers easily (up and downstairs)
If you can't lift 100 lbs by yourself - then you need another person besides wifey/gf/daughter who is strong enough and won't drop it.  I once tried to take a Proceed 5 ch amp (~100 lbs) up a floor. The problem with the amp was that all the weight...
