Warning: China-Hifi-Audio.com

@calieng
Thanks for the warning!

I once bought a power conditioner online for my servers - was only about $80. Sketchy Chinese site but I had no idea.

Here’s the link: https://www.cyberbunkers.com/2020/12/rnathaliecom-reviews-is-rnathaliecom.html?m=1

In the end, I never received anything. The Seller’s English was very poor over email, but being the decent human being I am, I thought to not pass judgements. I actually believed that I would receive the unit.

If you like Chinese Hi-Fi (great value for the money) then only buy from reputable sites and brands.

Good brands:
Woo Audio
HiFiMan
Topping
Douk Audio

Jesus Christ...$595 for shipping?

What did you order?! Did that amp come with a free elephant?!?🐘

Good luck with getting your money back.

By all means let me know which USA dealer has these products or something equivalent for a similar price?

Unless I missed it, I never saw where you were specific about what you bought. All I saw was "tube amp".

Hey, we all want a bargain. But sometimes the old "you get what you pay for" adage holds true, whether we like it or not.

check out those brands I listed... they're great 😃👍

For anyone who missed it above the seller just refunded thru Paypal today. Maybe because they saw this or another post about them. 

It was a Willsenton R-800i single ended integrated amp with 300B and 845 tubes. Price shipped was $2k. for the customer return item. I would guess with double box the shipping weight was close to 100lbs. So I figured there was maybe $200 profit in the shipping price.

But as I said I welcome any suggestions on a 300B/845 amp that can be had in USA for $2k. I am still looking for something.

Thanks.

I've got a Mastersound compact 845 for sale but it won't be $2k, maybe $4.5k
