I really have a sour taste in my mouth with Amazon allowing me to drop 7 bills on a non-authorized Grado dealer...
Yeah, it's Amazon's fault that you didn't do your research first and bought from an unauthorized dealer. Please. Even Grado themselves warn you that some resellers on Amazon aren't authorized..take a look for yourself at the Grado website. Seems to me if you were that concerned about getting your phones from an authorized dealer you'd have done a trivial amount of research before dropping 7 bills.
It boggles my mind why anyone would want to buy from a dealer who doesn't allow returns. How the heck are you supposed to know whether you'll like a pair of headphones without trying them with your own equipment? Besides, It is illegal for retailers to resell returned merchandise as new. A minimal amount of research (reading reviews and customer anecdotes, for example) will keep you from getting burned by less-than-scrupulous online sellers. And if Amazon didn't have such a liberal return policy, you'd really be up $hit creek since you failed to do your due diligence when buying your Grados.
Yeah, it's Amazon's fault. What a joke.
