Les was so nice to buy my Grado GS1000's. He was nice enough to offer an excelent price and Paid very quickly and was really attentive to my emails. I hope to do business with him in the future.

Les was quick and communicative with shipping. The packaging was good, but bad in different ways (being kinda picky here). First, the HT Omega Striker was considerately packaged due to wrapping it in fabric softener wrap which is good for taking away static (I believe that was the reason, anyways). However, the thing that was forgotten was the sticking of foam onto the pins of the card. The front panel pins came fairly bent out of shape. I had to carefully bend them back.
However, besides that, the card works perfectly fine and I would have to say I am fairly satisfied with the purchase. It was sold at a nice price. Thanks, Les!

Thanx for the FB! The pins are my mistake, they actually occurred while in my case some time back due to short cables and I forgot to straighten them. The Fabric softener was for Anti Static!

I bought two wonderful 6080WB tubes from Les. Les is a true asset to Head-Fi and I would not hesitate to deal with him again. Thanks Les!

Tried to buy a sound card from Les. After asking him to hold the product for me for a couple of days while I got the funds, promising him I would purchase it, I send him the funds while he continues to find other buyers and then refunds me the money for no apparent reason. I don't know if the moon was in the wrong phase or what but I wouldn't count on a solid transaction with this seller.

1) Here's the original Conversations:

Hi,
How long do you think? I still have it in my box because I am waiting for some cables and BNC stuff to mod my Claro Halo, that stuff will be here next week. . So, won't hurt me if you are serious about it.
Les
Shouldn't be longer than a week but I would keep you updated either way. If you get an offer for it and decide to sell that would be fine I was just basically letting you know I was interested.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
2) In the meantime I'm bumping the thread trying to sell
3) I get an irritable Post Publicly in My FS thread when I bumped it, about being Impatient
4) I answer, as long as it is not paid for, It's still for sale
5) I get this PM:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
To your message in the thread, I actually haven't come off something like that. Since I had been around here long enough I figured my word of saying I would purchase it would be enough. No harm no foul,
Matt
Forward Message
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
At this point as much as I want to sell the card, I've got an irritated buyer here. In my attempt to NOT get bad feedback. I send this PM.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I feel this Transaction may not work out for us. I'm going to refund your PayPal payment, and we'll just go on with No Harm, No Foul. Maybe next time.
Les
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Now Lookee Here what he does to me in my feedback thread.
I'm guilty of NOT Selling to someone who was becoming difficult, and he decides to leave retaliatory Negative Feedback, sheesh!
I also was Adult enough to not go to this guys Feedback thread and post this Crazy stuff over there to start a silly posting war. This pretty much shows I made a good choice not going through with the Transaction.
I think the term for this is "Petty"

Les was simply awesome to deal with. In fact, he's probably the first seller in the history of mankind to talk me DOWN in price, can't recommend him enough =D

Seller's Get very confused at this point and are unable to resist me!
It's A Darwinesque, Evolutionary, Genetics, Kinda Wang FU MOJO thing!!
Buyer-Fu then cannot resist Seller-FU! Game over!
Human's are just not wired to deal with this type of Ploy!!
In all seriousness, Glad you got those Flawless SE530's!! Enjoy them, they were wasted here.

Les fixed my zero dac which was having some intermittent power issues. Everything went really smooth and fast... no hiccups, issues, or anything of the sort.. 100% positive experience, would do business with him again.
