Re: Pre-Order Fail : An open letter to Allen & Heath and AMS Distribution
That is the best description I've ever read for GC.

Come on, man! The banjo is the only truely American instrument and deserves much more respect than GC! It shouldn't be the target of your distain - that's why they invented the Accordian!
This'll help - MPD instead of OCD though :Ron, somehow that created a mental image that will take years of expensive therapy to forget...
Who provided confirmation? You apparently placed an order with GC, which then goes into their internal system and not directly to the manufactuers or distributors. GC decides when to place an order with their manufacturers and distributors, those orders are often for larger dollar amounts or quantities in order to receive beneficial pricing, and when that order is received GC then uses it to fill their existing internal orders and their inventory. Sounds like GC decided to take and confirm pre-orders on the Qu-16 but also decided to place the related order with A&H/AMS such that they did not receive any units from the initial production run. That was entirely GC's decision and if you have any issues with it then they should be directed at GC.I had received a confirmation that my pre-order was in... THE DAY that pre-orders were available on it.
I'm sure there's plenty of blame to go around on both sides here... but at the end of the story, me... the customer of both GC and AH is affected by this. How is it fair to me that I put money down and was one of the first people to pre-order this item, and still don't have it, while other dealers have them in-stock and ready to go??
The banjo comes from Africa.
Perhaps he tired of being belittled. Why, do you want to use him for a punching bag, so you can make yourself feel better?
John...
The OP spread his whine over 4 different audio forums, refusing to take any responsibility for uninformed consumerism and faulting the manufacturer for the business practices of GC.
The OP is/was an a** and would not back down. So he went away rather than own up to self-centered stupidity. He just kept digging and earned every whack he got.
Any other questions?
No other questions, other than my sincere apologies to Bob Leonard for confusing this thread - which indeed was a bullshit one - with another thread where someone was being a bit churlish with the OP on his grammatical style, Dick.
Thanks for all the personal attacks... they're cute, especially from you Bob... who just assumes you know everything about every situation. If only we all had your magic crystal ball like powers, the world would be a better place. Time to get off that high-horse.
Truth of the matter is, the situation has been fully resolved after a brief discussion with A&H and my rep at GC. But really, thank you for your concern. So actually, your diatribe about how my posts would get me nowhere, were completely wrong. Though, I'm glad you were able to entertain yourself, at least for a little while.
I wish you well in the future, sir.
