I'm glad Chris and the customer apparently handled this, but it's odd to me why anyone would "seek council" from a bunch of people he/she has never met ...
This was not intended as a means of seeking counsel this guy wanted to damage my reputation plain and simple he told me he was going to do this ... The whole two month delay was entirely his fault ...
Ufff! I told you, I am going to damage your reputation?!?? What are you talking about??? Show us that mail!!!
And didn't we FINISH that story, Mr. Church? I got my money back and you enhanced your reputation by according that refund – wasn't that satisfying for both of us? So why your last post??? Why telling lies about me and lies about the way, this deal really ran? If I REALLY was going to damage your reputation, I easily could have done this before by publishing the mails between Church Audio and me, your customer, as members asked for. But that wasn't my interest! But you went too far!!!
So this is the first part of the communication with the company Church Audio. To sum up again: I had been on holidays in the USA in September and asked Mr. Church to send a pair of mics+preamp to the states, but only if it arrives before Sept.18th. He first gave me an OK, but after I paid, he canceled his OK and
I arranged with Mr. Church for shipping the stuff to Germany. I paid the additional shipping-fee and everything seemed to be OK. But then, Mr. Church made the crucial mistake: In October, weeks after I left the states,
he sent the package to the USA (with no one there to receive it anymore) and not to Germany. Remember: I paid him $55 just to send the stuff to EUROPE. So I waited 3 months before he told me, that he got the package back. And still no mics, no amp in my hands.
But that alone had not been a real problem, I really had been patient. But then, he began telling me again and again, that it would be all my fault. And he is going on with that ...

For nothing in the end, no mic, no preamp, nothing but trouble. No, I'm sorry, but that's not good for a companies' reputation ...
I thank you all very much and hope, I can finish that now ...
