Canadians returning svs subs

[tomd51]

You raised valuable points. I did check out that sight that he posted and seemed nice and flamey in nature without any concrete reasons. Just like you pointed out. I wasn't paying attention to the other threads he posted on this forum, just his last one. I can see now since you summed up all of his points, how -ve basshead is. Its too bad because he does raise a valuable point about the inordinate amount of work Canadians have to go thru let alone the costt of shipping, to return a product. Thru all that negativity, the real message gets lost.


Thanks for taking your time to explain it. Thought is appreciated. Cheers

NP, thanks for dealing w/the mini-rant... I just wanted to make sure it was known I'm not trying to throttle this guy for his opinions, just want him to base the responses with a little background or reasoning, that's all. Possibly add some constructive input as well. That and maybe use a little punctuation now and then... -TD

Funny that you mentioned that issue. I just read this last week, read "update 2"

edit: I see the OP is somewhat questionable, but still, the above link is interesting.

While possible from time to time, for the most part the "conspiracy theory"... is a little far fetched. Then again, for me to be saying that, I myself could be part of the conspiracy... -TD

Although this post is valid, from your "rant" he does seem to be just bashing. How about it Basshead, what is your beef with SVS?

He's banned. My guess is that he wanted a SVS sub so bad, but didn't want to pay the extra fees, and so anger leads to hate, hate leads to suff..... aw, you get the point.

Oh, I didn't know the force was involved. I thought he was an illegitimate child that either Ron or Tom would not acknowledge.

Maybe Basshead worked for SVS

Some say there's no such thing as bad publicity.

BassHead decided his own fate.

I notified Clint about the bashing, and he was given 2 options. Shape up, or Ship out.

I'll try, I think it's the Energy S10.3 (I could be wrong) he kept, he bought the velodyne at Futureshop and returned it so I don't think it was a DPS model.

I bought my DPS-12 from futureshop. Its the best subwoofer they carry...

I would trade it for an S10.3 too, but I would like the 12.

I think D--kHead, RockHead, Bs--Head, whatever worked for that white van with the illegals from the northern border roaming around the parking lot of BB and CC

A couple of comments:


1. Basshead could have been a "dissatified customer" of SVS. What I like to call "unreasonable" expectations. A common problem is somebody trying to take advantage of a financial situation, or turn a financial situation to their advantage.

(For me it is usually somebody in Europe or Africa that wants my company to dummy up a false (lower) invoice for tax payment purposes in their country .... Yea, like I am willing to ship a container of 100,000 dog pooper scoopers to Europe, falsify the invoice and state that we shipped only 10,000 dog poop scoopers, and lower the selling price from $333 to $3 per dop pooper scoopers .... When we refuse to partake in their little tax evasion scheme, we get bashed across various forums.)

In his case, he is in Canada, and a part of me suspects a little "unreasonable" expectation on his part was behind his rants. SVS refused to play financial games with him, or refused to allow him to extend, modify, or adjust their policies regarding returns. It may not have been a truly devious game on his part, he may have just requested SVS fully refund his freight and processing costs if he purchased and did not like their equipment, and SVS refused .... following corporate guidelines .... and became the devil himself in the process.



2. Shills promoting various companies are more common than people suspect. A lot more common. Not all of the promotion is devious, but the promotion exists neverless. I like to call it "trolling for customers". A bit like the street walker working the corner of Main and Suburb. A least she is obvious as to what she is doing.
