Exactly!I fail to understand why hesitation to name if you have been bold enough to share!
Hesitation is because of such unpleasant experience and more ever they are not sensitive enough towards issues and I don't want any trouble to any staff member of dealer to be axed due to this thread. I realized it is unofficial approved corporate practice for big brands, even automobile car companies are playing such tricks .I fail to understand why hesitation to name if you have been bold enough to share!
Thanks Sachin for Posting about Such a Malpractice from Reputed dealers with a Malicious intent, Unfortunately This happens more often than rare in Indian hifi scene. We as buyers are equally culprit as we don't report or discuss about such treatment and passover a Lemon to next buyer if we've been deceived (Which further enforces the endeavors of the Oppressor) .Recently ordered good floor standers from very reputed audio dealer in Bangalore. Paid money(Around 3 Lakhs) via CC and requested for good ,sealed ,clean box piece with color choice. Bill was sent after repeated reminders ,after lot of follow up, Box arrived, Awaited 1 day for installation.
The moment outer pack was opened, box was torn at various place ,taped at multiple place, it was looking like used piece. Taken photos and sent to dealer ,he told Bombay office mistake, man who sold during show room discussion said he alone is not responsible for sale, contact his junior and refused to answer immediately on the pretext of seniority.
Contacted Bombay office, they said deal with Bangalore office.
Very reputed French brand is behaving like this ,After paying huge money still as a customer we cant expect neat clean box, proper Sl no and colour match ,signature on invoice. Looks like monopoly still exists for reputed brands in India.
Finally dealer refunded my money after deducting CC charges around Rs 6500.
So be careful in dealing with this showroom.
Meridian speakers @mg road???Showroom is near very crowded place of Bangalore, which is famous for youngsters and shoppers.
Very true sir,in fact when I was asking explanation, they didn't bother at all.look like it is regular practice for handling such situations.Very seasoned unethical professionals.
I agree. if the incident as narrated has happened, there is nothing preventing the person from naming the dealer.Completely pointless thread without naming the dealer. I reckon he’s talking about the focal + naim showroom on residency road.
Hesitation is because of such unpleasant experience and more ever they are not sensitive enough towards issues and I don't want any trouble to any staff member of dealer to be axed due to this thread.

If your very purpose of posting this thread is the above last line, then it is meaningless without the actual detail of the vendor/seller.So be careful in dealing with this showroom.
Why do you care for the staff if they are unwilling to help you?Hesitation is because of such unpleasant experience and more ever they are not sensitive enough towards issues and I don't want any trouble to any staff member of dealer to be axed due to this thread.

Chander, thanks for listing the AV Dealers in BangaloreVery interesting @sachin.shiva - Let the games begin - So it is one of these -
1) HTStore in J.P.Nagar
2) Jamsticks near Banashankari Bus Stand
3) Modern World in Domlur (has 2 demo rooms with different systems)
The Listening Room, Smilee Greens

Audiovision, Indira Nagar 80 ft road
Babbler group:
Decibels/Cinebels
DNI Home Theatre
The Home Cinema
So just for fun - you recently suggested DNI to someone - I would shortlist them - maybe that is what you are referring to?
Now coming to the point - what is the point of hiding the name - after you have given "hints"? If you just tell the name here - people will know who to avoid. Actually I have items in cart from about 3 of these dealers. So you could only save me or someone else - who is perhaps sitting in their listening room right now.
So why the game? What is the fun in here? I am missing the point!
Why do you care for the staff if they are unwilling to help you?
The whole point of posting here is so that someone else does not land up dealing with the same dealer and ending up in the same situation as you.
You are protecting the interests of the dealer than helping anyone.
Moderators, I'd give this another day and delete this entire thread. The FM isn't being helpful to anyone here.
Its a useless, pointless thread.Moderator ,if thread is creating more harm to forum members or dealers then you can delete it .
