Wow! I'm amazed Serio actually shipped it. Congrats.

I was almost a victim myself a couple years ago. I paid with a credit card and contested the transaction to get my refund.

It's a pretty nice cab. It met my expectations and satisfied my "something is better than nothing" criteria.

Thats just keen because I gave the muck $500 five years ago & maybe just maybe Marc will ship my cab in the next 50 years so I can be buried in it so my kids wont have to buy a coffin because he stole $500 from me! What goes around comes around & hits hard.

Is this still going on?

I must admit I've been away for awhile. Life has a way of doing that to you but at the prompting of a good friend of mine, I popped back and what's the first thing I see, my best friend in the entire world has still not cleaned-up his business.

I have still not received the cabinet Marc owes me. I'm not waiting or holding my breath, just keeping this thread current just in case someone flies the "mission accomplished" banner around here...

Happy New Year!

at it again....

DrAss is now soliciting new orders on his website. Time to notify authorities that this is now a "viable" business again.
BTW, still haven't received my refund.

This has happened in the past 18 hours or so...I was on the site yesterday, mostly out of morbid curiosity, and he still had the "...we'll be back soon..." at the top of the page.

"I was going through a divorce, and I was dealing with heart problems. Then the recession hit and everybody went through trouble," he says. "I don't have anyone to blame but me, and I'm trying to fix those complaints." I understand the divorce and heart issues but I don't understand the "recession" reference because he was getting big business and he just had to make the cabs for the people who ordered them?

I know he is bad and all, and no one should order from him knowing what we know. But are his cabs anything special or are they just regular bass cabs?

He apparently felt that had to say something in his defense...interesting that he tells the press that it was divorce & heart trouble, when (IIRC) he told more than one P/O'd customer that it was liver issues and a potential repo of his house.

Devin - the cabs themselves are really nice, IMO...if he was still trustworthy, I'd imagine that he'd have more business than he could handle.

Before all the fraud and stuff he was known to made decent quality for the money, decent sounding cabs. They were often brought up in discussions about Avatar and such.
