Audioholics store

Some loser tries to scam the system, brags about it on another website and then comes over here trying to claim the high moral ground.

Wotta show.

Its not a scam, it was a price that was just un-advertised...and obviously a mistake, I just tried to get it at that price, and when I didn't, all I wanted was a notification. Thats what this entire thread is about. Would I want a deal, obviously, but thats not gonna happen.

 

[sokrman14]

But it was about getting a deal, as you left the A neighborhood and entered the B neighborhood posting about this "Deal" that "you" found you made it quite obvious that is all about a deal. If you felt like it was in error and you deserved some what more of a hands on customer service why not just keep it to your self and eventually the store as really that is where it should have stayed, but you decided not to do that, instead you wanted to share this great "deal' with others so back to your first sentence It is about a Deal , A deal that you are not entitled to, period. I remember some bad management and bookkeeping on my on-line bank account by myself and the balance albeit wrong as posted by me actually stayed in place on-line and I thought wow I just banged the bank good well I never did collect the extra 227,000.00 I typed in on the puter but I did spend the 22.70 and you know my bank caught on darn it, .
I always thought when we posted in such a forum over a few years or well any given time for that matter we kinda become a family albeit an internet family we are still friends and always looking for advice , sometimes not even audio related just everyday issues so why, I ask , why would you, knowing a mistake has been made, still go ahead and want to exploit this mistake with another group of people to take advantage of what are supposed to be friends, is it just business so to speak , just one mans way to achieve personal gain at some one else expense, not kewl at all down right un-kewl.

Maybe I should have kept it to myself, but if it was a real deal why not share it with the A/V world. I never knew that Oppo never gave deals on their products, I dont work for them or their e-tailers. Every other company in the world puts sales on their items, how am I supposed to know Oppo would be different? I honest to god thought I rolled up on a good un-advertised deal, and when they canceled it I realized they must have mistaken it, and then I posted that on the website also. Upon that I checked my order and it was canceled, without any notification. Of course I would have loved a deal on it. I bet even had I not posted it I wouldn't have gotten the player and my order had been canceled, and I would have sat here for 3 weeks waiting for the player to arrive.

So, tell me.

Its not a scam, it was a price that was just un-advertised...and obviously a mistake, I just tried to get it at that price, and when I didn't, all I wanted was a notification. Thats what this entire thread is about. Would I want a deal, obviously, but thats not gonna happen.

How is what you did not trying to take unfair advantage? That's like changing price stickers on a piece of merchandise and hoping a cashier won't pick up on it.

Look up a legal term called "undue enrichment" before geting back to me.

Your words on your post on that other site speaks volumes as to your intent and integrity.

Your a fisking IDIOT to try and pass yourself off as the innocent consumer... Go away.

Look I understand that you guys obviously don't agree with me, but I am not trying to scam, just make a point. If it was a scam I would have tapped into their computers and changed the prices myself. This was just a lucky (rather unlucky) attempt at putting in a random coupon code. I actually tried SAVE20, SAVE30, and SAVE50. They didn't work, but SAVE40 did. It was pretty much just trial and error. The point I am trying to make is that through numerous attempts at trying to get a hold of customer service, nothing was done. I got a hold of the same guy 3 times, and for 3 days he couldnt get the GM for me. If you read my first post on this forum I was very discrete about what I was talking about because I wanted this to be about the non-existent customer service. All I wanted was someone to talk to and give me an explanation, let me gripe to them and it would have been over. Since i never got any service I decided to make a stink about it on their own forum so hopefully they realize that they are giving inadequate customer service. Not only have I found out they don't care, but they are rude and sarcastic. I have been a member of this forum for quite a few years, and never had any problems. I am just disappointed that they want to be better than the big box stores and have shown no better customer service.

Its not unfair advantage, pricing errors happen all the time all around the world...not only that but the big box stores at least honor them, then change the price back.

We call it "undue enrichment" and it means you can't take what isn't yours, even if you received it because of someone's error.

I am not taking what isnt mine. I was merely trying to save some cash. The cash is mine, was mine and still is mine. The player was theirs and was sold to me at a lower price. Then canceled without any notification.

Nor am I trying to be an innocent consumer...I definitely tried to buy it at that price, what is point you are trying to make with quoting my original post a BR.com? All it shows is I tried to buy it and give others a good deal too. And had it turned out to be real it would have been an amazing deal. But it turned out to be false.

I know your heated up jinjinku, but fisking,
I like that one.I haven't seen that used in a sentence in like ten years.
Fisking is a written argument where one person sequentially addresses each point of an of another person's argument.

This is done in a precise manner relying on semantics and ambiguities to infer a defect in the original point. This approach is tantamount to taking a sentence out of context in order to refute an entire argument.

Fisking does not pay heed to the opponent's thesis as a whole, and thus does not disprove the thesis as a whole.
That bastard was Fisking my posts. So I had to create a hydra to Fisk him. I really fisted that Fisking fuqker.

Not when the "customers" change the prices on the items. Each time you try to justify what you did you dig yourself deeper and deeper into that hole.

I didnt change the price. One of their own coupons changed the price. I just blindly tried using them and one of the worked. Thats not illegal. As I said is every sale price on their website advertised? Is every sale on Best Buy's website advertised? How about amazon? The only way people find out about these deals is to go onto their websites and look at them. And once found people post them in a hot deals thread so others can get it at that price as well. You guys can't refute that...or else you wouldn't have a hot deals thread on your forum.

 

[njedpx3]

you guys in the US are pretty spoiled.

sure, the store had a bug which let that coupon go through.

i'm sorry, but you tried to get around the system, then you tried to gloss over it with your first post and you expect to be rewarded with something.

over here in the Philippines, if i did the same, i'd get the finger if i was lucky.

Good Point Mike and I agree a purchase should be an honest one; trying to bypass the system and use a coupon incorrectly is just plain WRONG. I have also used the Audioholics Store before and was very pleased.

Take care and thanks for doing a great job as moderator,

Sounds like you're in a severe state of denial.

I'll bet the AH Store would've given you the player for the mistaken coupon price.
Except for your posts shown by Jinjuku in post #44.

You got caught, and now you're trying to say it's always been about bad customer service.

I havent been caught doing anything wrong. As I said earlier all I did was post it in the hot deals thread. That is what the hot deals thread is for..am I wrong about that? And they wouldnt have given it to me at that price...or any discounted price because their customer service rep said they wouldnt. Then I tried to speak to a GM on 3 different occasions and they wouldnt connect me with him.

If you guys think that by me posting a hot deal in the hot deals thread is wrong them we have a major disagreement here and should just agree to disagree. Because that is what that thread is for.

Show me one thread where anyone suggests pulling a scam by trying to take advantage of a computer glitch. Heck, even your buddies in the other forum admit that you pulled a scam.

 

[sawzalot]

I told you guys its not about getting a deal,

I will ask again if its not about a deal then why did you post it in the hot deals thread, geez

There is not one person saying its scam. A couple people said its an amazing deal. One person said "they aren't obligated to sell it as a loss" and "nice try"

But please find me where someone calls it a scam other than maybe a Mod on this forum.

Youre thought process about this is awful. I will lay it out for you one last time.

This post on their own forum is about their customer service, not about trying to get a deal. I thought I was getting a deal and helping others get a deal when I stumbled upon what happened to be their own error. After being canceled and trying to contact them about it, it became about their poor customer service. Do you understand that? It hasnt been an issue about trying to get a deal since I realized it wasnt going to happen...which was shortly after talking to them. Don't get me wrong, I was always hopeful I would get a deal, but never counted on it. This entire post on AH has been about the customer service...which has only proved to me how bad it is with the exception to Gene who at least admitted I should have been notified.

 

[markw]

You would think "nice try" would have gotten the poin t across, wouldn't you?

There is not one person saying its scam. A couple people said its an amazing deal. One person said "they aren't obligated to sell it as a loss" and "nice try"

But, I don't have to. You're the one on the carpet here. Go ahead. Prove you didn't pull a scam. Your own words, here and there, are your worst enemy.

You do know that your true character has been revealed in this thread, don't you?

Yeah, you're the type that goes through a neighborhood trying all the doors. When you find one unlocked, you rob them blind saying the open door was an invitation by the owners to help yourself to their goodies.

Anyhow, back to my original point. I'm still waiting for that example in our "deals" section...

Hold on a minute , I am just re-posting your words so in essence you are claiming your own thought process to be awful, thank you.

Uhg... It wasn't a hot deal. You were randomly typing in coupon codes to see if one 'sneaked through'. It's like me going to Newegg or Geeks.com and typing in coupon codes till the system doesn't catch it and then playing the victim when I can't get a response back from Newegg as to why my gaming their online system didn't work out like I thought.

Sorry, but no one is buying.

BTW if I did that with Newegg I wouldn't have the AUDACITY to go into a public forum and complain.
