I have not. I called them this afternoon and they said they were getting a few big shipments today, mondy and tues and it should be in them. Probably in todays. Should go out soon and we should have them early to mid next week. who knows if its bull shit or not.
Well I dunno here’s the deal and what I know... I got off the phone with Peter at 6ave.com and he told me he was looking at a live screen and it was in stock ready for shipping. So I went ahead and placed the order for the z1 and bunch of speakers and amp. During our discussion he said something to the effect that the package would probably run upwards of 100-120 lbs. The DHL email indicates only 56 lbs. Won’t know for sure until it arrives but it sounds a little light for 2400 worth of speakers, amps, z1 and z1 accessories. Z1 probably runs 20-25 lbs alone anyways and amps and speakers aren't light. But he said it was all there and everything would ship Friday. Due to be here for Tuesday we'll just have to see then.
On different note I have to say that if everything is in fact there then I am pleased with 6ave. I'll be sure to let everyone know if it all came in or not on Tues, and granted I am putting the carriage before the horse but if all there on Tues... real satisfied. Hope my bubble doesn't get broken on Tues.
Peter told me on Thursday that they just received a shipment of the z1's and assured me that everything I ordered was in stock. He knew however that if I was told it wasn't in stock I wouldn’t have placed the order. I just hope I’m not falling for the "banana in the tail pipe trick" bait and hook. I'll call AmEX if the order is light and file a dispute for something about fraudulent business practices. Maybe I'm a little over doing it or feeling a little over zealous but it's how I feel. I probably get laughed off the phone. I have a half of mind to let AmEX know that I was promised certain services and merchandise on a certain date and 6ave didn't follow through. I don’t think anything can be done in fact, there's probably some kind protection/for businesses in the sense of allowing for some reasonable amount of lead time / leeway prior for shipping. But if you ask me the card should only be run for what is actually packaged and shipped. The when ready to ship balance of the order - run the card for that amount. Maybe someone has some thoughts or can speak intelligently on the matter. I mean that's how I run my business, when we ship we charge card.
COULD someone direct me to how to get the bypass set up and all that, please? I was fishing around and could not find it. Or if someone knows how or something. I am going to have an installer install unit and I dont know if he will conduct this or not. I think it is better that I do it to the unit myself, if it is done or can be done in that fashion, so I dont need to worry about him refusing to do it.
