Recently bought something from williamgoody in his recent sales. Shipping took longer than either of us expected, but nothing I shouldn't have been more patient for. Would definitely by rom him again should the occasion arise!

All the praise here is true-Bill is a super guy and great to deal with. A top-notch Head-Fier!

Bill not only sold me his 15' Cardas cable for Senn HD-600's, he was even kind enough to deliver it to my home! A swell guy, I'd deal with Bill anytime....

What can I add? Look at this list of positive feedback! Bill bought a pair of tubes from me, paid extremely fast, great communication and the whole bit. Would definitely deal with again. Thanks!

I bought a pair of DT770s from Bill, and have no complaints. The phones are in perfect shape, as he described, and were shipped promptly and securely. A no-hassle experience.

Work with Bill has been great. Despite the fact that there were some times when Bill got a little busy, it's totally understandable seeing that he got a new job and all. Any impression that I might have made earlier, discard that. While the trade went horribly wrong, it wasn't due to Bill at all. This also being my first trade, Bill was very understanding of what was gonig on.

Edit: My full story.

I agree to a trade with him. An MZ-R50 (non recording) a gumstick charger and 3 used gumsticks for an MT831. I send it out, but don't give him a tracking number. I wait a week and a half. Doesn't arrive. I Check with him. He checks with neighbours. Nobody's seen the package. he says that nobody knocked on the door to ask his aunt to sign or anything. So he checks around some. He tells me to go back and get a tracking number. (Tracking number and him checking around sort of happens simeltaneously.) UPS tells me information about the package.

And I gave him the information. Now, around this time, Understand he is doing his new job. So I give him some time. He says, Ahem, I quote. "Go ahead and file the claim. I believe if it indeed was dropped off here, it was left without a signature and then lifted, a somewhat common occurance around here. "

UPDATE!: Due to me being busy, i've been a bit lax about dealing seriously with this. What happned is that UPS shipped it to the wrong address! Messed up with the zipcode. In my opinion, Bill is officially cleared of any wrong doing.

To tell you the truth, this situation was exagerated with my incredible incompetence with shipping (This is the first time i've ever dealed with UPS in my life) and Bill was very understanding and I know i've reacted inapropriatley. In light of Bill's vow not to trade with anyone he can't drive to, i'd fully support this. Not because Bill is at fault. It's because that UPS is the devil, just like JPELGW (Typo?) said.

i have also had a little problem with williamgoody. i traded a CD player for an amp, but never got the amp. circumstances prohibited me from getting delivery confirmation. he never recieved the CD player, according to him, and i never got the amp. i thought it was the post office because at the time he had perfect feedback, so i trusted him.

Edit: Full Story
On August 26, 2003 Bill posted the Prehead for sale. I Paypal him $600 the next day, and he said he shipped it 2 days later.

After 2 weeks, nothing show up, so I PM him saying it shouldn't this long from US to Canada. My other US deals only took a week.

After 4 weeks, nothing show up. I know that it will not arrive so I PM him discussing what we should do. He said he filed a complain with the post office, and promised to send me the OTL32 as a replacement.

I wait for more 2 weeks, he still didn't send the OTL32 out. I then PM him a few more times asking what's going on. He then said he got his cousin to send out the OTL32, that's exactly 2 and a half weeks after his initial promise.

So I will wait for another week to see if the OTL32 will arrive. This is one hell of a long deal for me and I have been without an amp for 7 weeks.

Another Edit:
I did finally received the OTL32 from Bill. I guess I lucked out this time while the other members are still having problems with Bill.
