I’ll say this. I’ve done business with TMR several times over the course of months and years and have noticed the exact thing you’re are talking about. As a result, I’ve become very aware of the used market and just decided to cut them out of the “buy back” portion. I now create all my own ads for gear I’m selling, I gather all shipping details, I handle all the packaging, and I also deal with all the tire kicking low ballers and that’s the biggest pain in the ass and I do it all for top topper in order to get that next piece
The Music Room is Slipping
I cannot recommend doing business with them any longer. They DEEPLY lowball you when you sell them gear and then forget all about the mass profits they made on you when you are looking to buy something from them, They offer to stand behind a purchase, yes... but the reality is that it is all about max profits on used gear and lack of any sort of support or consideration going forward. They are nothing more than a pawnshop for audio gear and I am done with them.

Seems that TMR would deserve criticism if there was a pattern of hidden fees, failure to honor warranties, deceptive advertising of goods, etc. I don't see anyone saying that is the case. In my TMR transactions, I've known exactly the financial terms. When I've consigned or sold through TMR. I've received payment within 2 or 3 business days through funds transfer. I know the service I'm getting and its value to me-I can use TMR-or not. Hard to find an issue here, at least for me. |
@gjkphd : Thanks for that; it was very helpful to know of your defective item experience. @peter_s : I guess I am showing my age!! I hadn't thought of that. Yes, that would certainly make it easier to prove that there is a problem. If anyone else has stories regarding defective equipment, please do post your story here for the benefit of all. Thanks. |
