If that fails I would try to go 1/2's with the seller on the amp price and shipping. It would be nice if we held each other to higher standards than strangers when dealing with things of this nature on this forum. Most people here seem to be good natured and I know it would be asking alot, but we should really look out for each other if possible. If not, we really need to be sure that every transaction on this website is "buyer beware". Unfortunate situation all around though. I'm sure the seller doesn't feel great about this.

Great piture of the chicken btw. Made me laugh.
That is a chicken with attitude. The amp was also on eBay and had I purchased it there I would have had some recourse. I actually felt better knowing the seller was a member here so I kind trusted things would be more than just a sale among strangers. If it were me and I believed the other persons claim I would offer to split the loss but that's me.

The reason I went used was to buy some time to research an aftermarket stereo. Now I'm just going to invest in a total system upgrade if I can convince the wife.

Life goes on and either way it's a lesson learned. I hope I'm surprised when I discuss a resolution with him.
