Shop f*cked up my install

[*Ace* 10+ year member]

It's a long story but basically after going to the shop to install my 6.5" ID ctx's and nine.2x to power them they blew the right tweeter(they say it was like that out the box //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif) my left tweet is making a static noise. Also, are the vocals suppose to come out the mids or tweets? cause there comming out of both. i think they messed up the crossover too.

If they fawked it up, go back there and bish up a storm and tell them you will blow the place up if they don't make it right!

Well don't go that overboard, but you get my drift?

They should have insurance to cover **** ups?

Why do people buy shit online then take it to a shop to install? Makes no sense to me. If you buy it online, install it yourself.

The shop cannot possibly warranty the gear you bring them from ebay, maybe it was blown out of the box, maybe they blew it because they didn't like you.

Yes, vocals come out of both, the mid freq's come out of the mids, and the high freq's come out of the tweeter.

Ok, if they are a reputable shop thats been around for a while, threaten to submit complains to your local chamber of commerce.

if you paid by credit card, try to get a chargeback.

Tell them you will spread word around that they ****ed ur shit up and refuse to compensate. that should make them rethink the situation. a person's word of mouth can be used locally a lot. and they should be smart enough to know its not worth losing other posible customers over

sucks it happened but you should buy ur equipment where u have it installed. they will give you better deals the more you buy and the more often u go there.

if u bought there equipment and there was a tweeter blown they would install another one right then even if they fugged it up...

ya need shops and to keep them in business you need to suport them and they will cover you!

Do you people seriously believe that a local shop should warranty gear you bring them from ebay? It's not going to happen.

It's an either/or situation. Either you buy the gear from them and get the full service, OR you buy the gear from ebay and deal with ebay's "service". Paying a shop to install gear you bought online seems like the worst of both worlds. You over pay for installation, but don't get the warranty from either party. Your disatisfaction is almost guaranteed.

maybe because every shop i have ever been into has sold overpriced crap? like l5 12s for like 300 bucks each and crap like that. I install all myself tho, but i could definitely understand saving thousands by not buying at a store.

i would support shops around me if they sold ID //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Stores are in business to make money, not to sell stuff for the same price as what you find on the internet. At our store we typically make 40 points on most of our products, some more some less. But we gots to pay to keep the place open.

consumers pay the extra for good customer service(hopefully) and peace of mind
