Please point out negative speculation Jtimothya. Not sure where your getting that. I said that I purchased a pair of Alpha cables. Needed different terminations and when I tried to order them, it took a month and still no terminatios. I cannot use the cables without them. When I asked they said that that they never remembered talking to me, despite having called TWICE. No apologies nothing. No speculation here...just bad customer service. When you spend several hundered dollars on cables you expect to be treated at minimum respectfully. Else there are other companies out there who will. They should AT Minimum apologize for dropping the order and do what they can to get the terminations to you ASAP. A good company would have sent the terminations ASAP free of charge or pay shipping. A descent company would have at least expedited the terminations ASAP with no further delay, perhaps apologizing for lack of service. A bad company tells the customer he's wrong and he didn't ever talk to them and that it wasn't their fault.
My "my threads" viewer says over 200 people have viewed this thread. If AC goertz ever checks Audiogon, then they'll see this and understand the importance of treating EVERY customer with dignity and not just most of them.
Apparently, my experience is not the norm for them. Nevertheless, I believe that any other customer would be frustrated having had my experience and after having spent several hundred bucks still not being able to use the cables nearly a month on.
