I bought a pair of Shure E4Cs from Fred. Communication was great. Shipping was quick. I would gladly transact with illkemist again.

I also recently bought a pair of Sennheisers from Fred (HD595) and the transaction couldn't have gone smoother. He had the cans in the mail the day he received my funds and they came well-packaged. Thanks Fred.

Fred sold me his iBasso D1.
He shipped immediately. It was very conscientiously packed.
He even sent it via priority shipping!
And the item could have passed for brand new.

All round a great experience.
Thank you.

I purchased a pair of Westone UM2s from Fred and their condition was just as he described. He answered any questions quickly and accurately, and he shipped immediately. I would definitely buy from him again. A great transaction!

I bought a pair of AKG K701 from Fred.
Communication was good and shipping was fast from his side.
Too bad Customs took a while to clear them, but that has nothing to do with Fred off course.
The Phones are in perfect state and even the box, complete with documentation and accessories, looked almost like new.
I am very pleased with this purchase, and would not hesitate to buy from him again.

I bought Fred's Alessandro MS2i. He packed them great, they were exactly as described (like new), and he even shipped them within an hour of receiving my PayPal payment! Great guy to deal with, highly recommended.

I bought a Graham Slee Solo from Fred. Communication was prompt and good, shipping lightning fast and the amp was very well packaged. Everything arrived in great condition on the other side of the world. Would gladly deal with Fred again.

Default Fantastic Transaction from the get go!! As they say on Ebay, A+++ all the way!!

Bought a Benchmark Dac Pre from illkemist.

Everything was packed perfectly, the unit was/is in absolutely perfect condition and put into service minutes after receipt.

Paid him at about 1:30 in the morning, and he had it shipped by 8:30 or so the same morning, and I got it the next day!

Would not hesitate to do business with illkemist again.

Thanks illkemist for a wonderful experience!
