GD Audiobase still trustworthy?

I ordered a pair on Friday morning, and they were out of stock on Friday afternoon. That's probably why you had difficulty with the site.

Oh, and my order went through just fine. Not shipped yet, but the order went through.

I ordered about a couple of weeks ago. It's much like what you have described. First the Order No gets generated and I got a confirmation mail. Then I paid using Moneybookers and got a confirmation mail from them a few minutes later. I don't know how safe is Moneybookers, so I used a Virtual credit card which is valid only for that transaction.

greetings!

Yup. I got an email confirmation from GD-Audio and a separate payment confirmation (albet a few days later) from Moneybookers.
 

I tried to pay straight away and got an error message... what's also worrying is that the site isn't 100% encrypted :/

now its saying the account is closed... hmmm

I ordered a pair last month, I checked the tracking on the Russian post.. So far It's still on the way. been a month and a half now.. but I can wait.

I ordered a pair of F-002's from gd_audiobase on eBay - March 25th.  I still have not received them.  gd_audiobase has not replied to my recent messages through eBay, and I have opened a Resolution Center case against them, since time was running out for me to do so and still be covered under eBay buyer protection.  I will report back what happens.  Not good.

I ordered a pair of Fischer Audio DBA-02's back on April 10, so today is my one month anniversary of ordering and they haven't even left Russia yet (I haven't received a tracking number). :(

Wow! The last few posts make me feel lucky for receiving my Eterna V1 and SB V2 just before SB went out of stock again!

I placed my order on April 22nd after reading on this site they were a trusted seller with 100% feedback.  lol   I think I just P***ed my money down the drain.  I've gotten one email from Dimitry since that order and that was on the 30th saying it would be shipped shortly.  I have sent 3 emails since that time with no response.  Is there anything we can do?  Contact our credit card company that we used to pay with moneybrokers??  I have a funny feeling my headphones will never arrive.

Ordered mine on 4/12 and the status was changed to shipped on the 4/13. I contacted them a week after not receiving a tracking number. I'm gonna tell them to cancel my order if it hasn't been shipped yet on Monday and see what happens. According to his last email and the website, my order should have been shipped on 5/13 at the latest. I would avoid these guys like the plague until they start sending out orders.

This is an enquiry e-mail via http://www.gd-audiobase.com/ from:

 My order number is 00000xxx and it was shown as shipped on 4/13 but I still haven't received my tracking number yet. How long does it usually take to get the tracking number?

It has been 3 weeks since I made my order. Is the customs issue resolved? When can I expect to get my order if you are still having problems with customs?

Hi.

We understabd that order processing is taking too long thi time, but since we were asked by our customs to go thorugh additional verification proccess, we were unable to send any overseas parcels within that time. Now all qestions are solved and we ship all delaed orders by parts. If you have not been sent by tracking tracking number yet, it means that your order shipping is planed on this holidays or beginning of the next week. If you rorder is fro FA-003 all FA-003 order will be shipped on the next week. We would be very glad to do it all faster, but it depend on our customs and we cant get it work faster. If you dodnt want to wait, you can issue refund.
Average delivery time is two weeks.

Thanks for being so patient all this period.
