Re: [Repeater-Builder] Pion and Simon

[NORM KNAPP]

Al is a nice guy and he stands by his product. I had a weird problem with a 
Mastr II vhf repeater of mine that had his controller in it. For some reason it 
stayed in tx all the time. It would not time out. It would repeat rx audio 
fine. I contacted Al about this and he knew of no problems with his card doing 
this. He told me if it turned out to be his card to send it in and he would fix 
at no charge. Turns out it wasn't his card. I am not sure what is the problem 
to this day. I removed one of the diodes on the 10v card in one of the ptt 
lines that wasn't needed and the problem went away. I have not had time to 
trouble shoot the problem, but no real need to now.

Was it bought on eBay? Post the item number / link. I'd like to see 
this. Ian has a good point, although its called BUYER protection. Seller 
protection works the same way, but for sellers. Just my OCD kicking in.

John 

If you paid them on paypal, and it hasnt been 45 days yet since the 
transaction, institute a paypal chargeback. You can do this if you havent been 
given any valid tracking number on your item. 

This should get someone's attention on the other end. 

If after 30 days (i think) paypal will credit you your expense. its 
called seller protection. 

Paypal has a toll free number that works from Canada, so give them a 
call for details. 

Good luck

I've sent an e-check before.
But that's because the purchase was over 2K u.s.

No instant transfer option on that one

I've received the odd e-check. They may take up 
to 10 days to clear, but Paypal will not credit 
the funds to the recipient until such time.

John's delay won't be substantial, only a few 
days.  He is wanting to receive his controller 
before the 20'th of this month.  I see no reason why he won't get it by then.

Not all PayPal transactions are instantaneous.

that clears the the bank.  There are ways to transfer money to PayPal

Probably a paypal E-CHECK rather than a paypal instant transfer.
 
Takes quite awhile sometimes.

As promised, here are two replies I received about 30 minutes after 
sending an email to Al and Elizabeth:



Kevin, I received an e-mail from him just today.
I sent him a reply within minutes.  I just read his response.  I hope 
the attached file explains everything, but if not, please feel free to 
inquire further.


And by the way, thanks again for your site.

Best regards,
Al KK7XO


And I was CC'd on his response to John,

John, it's unfortunate that you put a complaint on the repeater 
builder site.  I answered your e-mail inquiry within minutes of 
reading it, as I do with virtually every e-mail I receive.


Your check should clear as early as tomorrow according to the 
information I have.  We have no control over how the check is 
handled.  Apparently it has to do with the fact that there is an 
international transfer of funds and the related monetary conversion 
from Canadian funds to US funds.  I will mail your board as soon as we 
have confirmation.  It usually takes 3 days or less for the package to 
arrive after we mail it.


I hope this is satisfactory.  I'm sorry you had difficulty purchasing 
our board.  We will do everything we can to make sure your order goes 
out promptly as soon as we get confirmation of the transaction.


73 de Al KK7XO 








I have sent a message to Al and Elizabeth as well - asking for help 
here.  Maybe your messages are getting caught in a SPAM filter or 
something.  This is not their normal practice and I can only assume 
your messages are not getting delivered.


I'll let you know when I get their reply.

I have sent a message to Al and Elizabeth as well - asking for help

Bear in mind that some people don't reply to emails because they are 
working on whatever spawned the email.

If you paid them on paypal, and it hasnt been 45 days yet since the 
transaction, institute a paypal chargeback. You can do this if you havent been 
given any valid tracking number on your item.

This should get someone's attention on the other end.

If after 30 days (i think) paypal will credit you your expense.  its 
called seller protection.

Paypal has a toll free number that works from Canada, so give them a 
call for details.

Sorry John. You are correct.  In this case buyer protection.

I only had to invoke it once years ago. Some 
doofus refused to ship me my 2 Micor mobile beige 
speakers after 6 weeks - a big $23.


The chargeback got his attention.

Last time I bought a controller from them, it took a long time to get 
here, like about a month. But when I ordered one from ICS, the lead time 
was like 60-90 days. I actually forgot I had ordered it when it showed 
up.
