Great to hear! I'll give you five bucks for them.

despite the generous offer

, i'll never sell them. too much sentimental value. these are now the headphones that almost were not.

i also contacted the seller to tell him that the transaction was now complete (i'm sure he will be quite relieved) and UPS to tell them to close the claim - not that i owe them any favors.

I am very happy for you,very nice headphones.Some of us were on the edge of our seats all through this.Very moving.Good luck and happy listening.

 

[vcoheda]

More twists and plot changes than a season of '24'!

Glad to hear that your new toy is safely back with you.

Man. That was fun. At your expense, but yeah. real life drama.

"Don't go into his apartment! AAAAAHHHH!"

I'm glad it's all sorted now.

Sweet ending and I'm glad you got the Grados back. But man, two weeks and he had them? What, was he listening to them and thought they were just regular sounding phones and not worth keeping? You're so lucky to get them back!

 

[scott_d_m]

Now what are we gonna do for excitement around here...hehehe.

Just kidding vcoheda. Glad to see you finally got your Grado's.

 

[vcoheda]

the seller was shocked to hear that i got them. so i am, the more i think about it. the end result while the right one is also the unlikely one. even though i strongly suspected that this person had my headphones, i had no real proof that he did. he could have just as easily said to me that he didn't have my package and had no idea what i was talking about. i would have thought he was lying (most likely) but really couldn't have done anything about it. UPS had proved useless. the police brushed me off. my only recourse was to pester him until i got an answer. had i done nothing, he would have kept them. he had for 2 weeks already. but i persisted and for that reason and maybe others, he decided to finally contact me and return them.

Nice story.
You should pass them off as a family heirloom. With every generation, this inspiring story shall be told... =o

Haha.

 

[vcoheda]

like the watch from pulp fiction.

This needs a sequel.

Go order something 10x more expensive and tell us what happens.

 

[davidr2287]

Just hope there isnt a sequel!

 

[ecclesand]

Glad it all worked out for you and the RS-2s are in their rightful owner's hands. The person who UPS delivered to by mistake should be ashamed of themself for not contacting you IMMEDIATELY. You're right...this could have easily gone the other way.
