ATTENTION! HIFIKLAPPER - PLEASE MAKE THIS THREAD A STICKIE AND STOP THE FRAUD.
sorry to post in English but I don't write Dutch (I can read it a bit). Just wanted to add my story to the pile. I ordered an Electrocompaniet DAC the 1st of July, so a bit more than one month ago. I (foolishly?) paid over 1300 Euros with a bank transfer and since then the people at hifikrapper told me already four times that "next week we will receive a delivery of products so hopefully yours will be there." the third time I called was one week ago and they told me that the item I ordered was a very exclusive one and therefore it takes longer. it's only then that I discovered this (and other) forums with so many people complaining about that shop. The latest thing they told me on the phone last week is not to worry and to be patient 2 more weeks because they are 100% sure that my DAC will be delivered at my home by that time (which will be the 12th of August).
Today I called them again and of course they told me to wait another week, so I cancelled my order and asked my money back. Lots of people waited many weeks or months to get their money back. some other people are still waiting.
Please let's act together against those people so that they don't fool other people in the future and let's say the truth about those assholes (the way they answer smiling on the phone like if their behabiour was completely normal is just disgusting).
Could the administrator of this forum PLEASE make this thread a stickie so that it stays in the first page of the forum and visible all the time? too many people have lost money and patience.
I will on my side alert every single dutch AV forum on the net, every shopping site listing them and I will contact my lawyer, the electrocompaniet distributor in holland (to denounce them as unauthorized dealers so that they can take legal action against them) and the police to do everything I can to have them stop ripping off people.
