I've had a similar thing happen to me - I thought the sale was 'under discussion', as the seller had provided his paypal address. I had then asked for the seller's address and phone number before I made the payment, and indicated I could pay within 24 hours. Well, no response to that request...

I'm going to resurrect this thread as I just received my new SQ-84 today from Stephen, along with a set of JJ 6V6's and RCA 6U8A's. I'm floored!! This amp just blows me away with my RS-1's, based on my first few hours of listening. The life-like midrange is just awesome, and I'm impressed with...

x2 on Etymotic ER-4

I'm studying for an exam, so no time for a long reply, but yes, Rx-7's are pure magic... there's something about them that mesmerizes and enthralls me in a way that no other car ever has, and I doubt any other car could.... especially the FB (first generation). The uniqueness and utter...

I've been using the wireless mightymouse for a few weeks - it's pretty darn nice (especially the feel of the 360-degree scrolling), except for a few minor annoyances: first, right-clicking doesn't always work for some reason; second, sometimes the scrolling konks out until I blow into it and...

Currently immersed in the enthralling matter of the gray area between 'when the crime actually committed is of a similar type to that contemplated, and when the crime actually committed is a probable consequence of the crime contemplated' ... only rivalled by my earlier extended foray into the...

I love the text of the rule about affection displaying 'poor taste and poor judgment'; I wonder what a psychologist would have to say about messages like that... how are kids supposed to develop socially if they can't engage in normal human behaviour, and worse yet, are being told said normal...
