    pretty soon maybe they'll get to a price where I'll purchase one to try with my 3f. The new 2022 price is ridiculous

    If they still have the soundstage of an IEM I would say it's a blatant rip off. I don't care much for soundstage but Focals somehow made me care.

    Yup, it's been removed. So many gosh darn scams on headfi as of late.

    Even if you pay for goods and services, if they close the account after you send funds you're pretty much screwed anyway correct?

    I’m pretty sure PayPal is the one screwed in that scenario.

    Indeed and if they had a legit CC or bank accounted associated to the service they will withdraw the money.

    Correct, paypal will foot the bill.

    As a general caution for everyone there does seem to be a large uptick in scams in our little niche market. Across head-fi, USAM, ebay, Reverb, everywhere. Avoid buying from people with no feedback, especially if they are shipping from a foreign country (there's a whole set of scams I could explain that rely on delayed shipping).

    Also, don't pay anyone F&F on paypal.

    A rare Audeze LCD-R and Jot A for sale on head-fi here.

    It's been listed for over a month now, it seems. The price has been coming down, now $2700.

    There was a post about hd800s a few posts ago from usam. I jumped on those and sent the payment, looks like I got scammed, starting the motions with PayPal now. This sucks a big one.

    That one?

    Either way, sucks man, and hopefully you get your $$ back. It's always nice to deal with other people in the hobby swapping gear and it's truly shitty when some people take advantage.

    Bummer to hear. The buggers seem out in force lately. Any new evolutions or twists of scams that we should be aware of?
