Title: Fret-Audio in classified
Post by ZENTISH on 06/21/08 at 18:18:38

Hi, Has anyone seen the ads in the classified section by Fret- Audio? They must be joking=Mark Levinson CD39 for 750.00, I looked it up on Audiogon Bluebook and they sell for a couple of thousand! Then i clicked on their website and saw McIntosh mc275 for 600.00 and said they have a bunch of them! Whats up with that?

It appears to be a scam.

If you google the address, it does not exist on google maps. In fact the street 'Post Meadows Dr' does not come up at all in google search of minnesota.

A /whois of the website shows its owned in the Netherlands.

Be very careful

I reply very late to this post, just to say that I decided to investigate and sent the €100 he asked as an advance payment (on a total €250...!) for a Naim XPS2. He disappeared, never sent anything (of course!) and ceased to answer all mails, so he's obviously a total fraud. He's not likely to have retained the same name, but yes, be careful.
