Long story short.... I paid for an amp, and I received a #@$&ing PAVER BLOCK!!!
Here's the original post: http://www.caraudio.com/forums/amplifier-classifieds/615834-crescendo-3-kwp.html?prefixid=soldthread_sold
Now before everyone starts grinding me up for buying from someone with NO POSTS and NO REFS please read on. I originally seen the ad on the 13th of April (I think?), sent a PM, he replied to me on the 14th and asked me to text him which I did. He told me he was new and didn't have any refs, at which point I looked at the F/S thread again and realized it was literally his FIRST post. HUGE red flag... But I continued corresponding with him and got the feeling he was "good people", just NEW. I was "NEW" not that long ago, so I empathized with him, and tbh I REALLY WANTED THE AMP! Anyway, I asked him to prove he had it, so he linked me to a video (see below). I then explained to him that since he didn't have any refs, and I did, that I'd be willing to do half payment up-front and the rest upon delivery of the item. He immediately agreed. (which I know realize should've been RED FLAG #2 ) So I got the PP info and tried sending the payment and for some reason it didn't accept it? I contacted him, he called PayPal and told me that it was something on MY end with my credit card? Mind you my wife and I have 3 different cards linked to our PP account, all of which I know to be up to date, BUT I double checked everything anyway and it may or may not've been due to an old address that hadn't been updated, but at this point I really don't know? So a minute later the payment goes through and I ask him to send me pics and documentation of the shipping process which he did (see below). Fast forward to today... My wife calls me and says there's a package here for me and that it looks like an accordion. I say why'd you sign for it, but no sig was required. Anyway, I got home around 4pm and was STOKED my amp had arrived!!! Right? Smh... So just in case anything actually was damaged during shipping (and I'm SO GLAD I did it now) I decided to record the entire unboxing process.... smfh..... Live and learn I guess? Oh and before I forget the name he gave me was Max Mourand, he even befriended me on FB!? Here's all the links and pics:
This is the video of amp working:
And the pics of the SUPPOSED shipping process:

Ok, so it's taking FOREVER to compress and upload this video so I'll post a link to it as soon as it becomes available. And to you Max "Overclock" Mourand, or whomever the &%$# you are, your day will come buddy, believe it. And consider yourself VERY fortunate that you reside in Canada sir.
