So why wouldn't you want it fixed Geoff? Even if you have no intention of keeping the amp, having it fixed would allow you to move it on and recoup some of your losses. I have been sympathetic to your plight up until now however you appear to be determined to see this through to the bitter end and frankly I honestly believe you are unlikely to see a penny of what you are owed. I'd also be keen to know what you intend to do with the amplifier if you are recompensed? I hope it is not your intention to take Mr Wood to the cleaners AND keep the amp because I tell you now sir, if that is what you are angling for then you've lost me.Quote:

Didn't he just say he has no intention of keeping it?Quote:

Struggling to see why you couldnt possibly accept to be honest.
I have to agree. I’m also with Dave (Synsei).Quote:

I’m afraid I can’t help but think that now.
Marco.
Marco, I'm surprised and saddened you've said such a thing. I'm not a chancer and I've nothing to hide, the tale of woe I've posted on this forum is the complete and full truth. Wood ripped me off, cheated me, mugged me, call it what you will.Quote:

I've fairly recently bought Glen Croft pre and power amplifiers, I also have a PrimaLuna Prologue 2 and a Harman Kardon HK990, all three are excellent. If you still doubt me Marco, give me your address and I'll pack the Wood amplifier up and arrange for a courier to deliver it to you, it will be yours to keep and do as you wish with it as I don't want the bloody thing.
Hi Geoff,
Well, I simply have to be honest, as anyone else would’ve jumped at the offer (in particular) that Stewart made, so your non-acceptance of that has raised suspicions about your claims.
Anyway, ok, I’ll PM you my address and you can send the amp to me. When I receive it, next time I’m down at Anthony’s place (which won’t be long), I’ll take it to him, and if he can fix it, we’ll sell the amp on and give the money to charity.
How does that sound? :)
Marco.
That's an excellent idea, perhaps the charity could be Cancer Research UK ? When you pm me your address could you suggest a suitable courier please ?Quote:
