In Reply to: RE: Would you pay to audition speakers posted by sudz1234@yahoo.com on March 12, 2011 at 12:13:16
I should not be required to leave a cash deposit, but a credit card deposit might seem reasonable so long as a full refund was due should I decide not to buy. And, I might pay for the dealer for his time if he provided an "audition" consisting of home delivery and comprehensive setup assistance. Taking a pair of loudspeakers home for an audition is not at all like "test driving" a car from an auto dealership. The auto dealer offering free test drives would have insurance covering the events, while the brick n' mortar guy selling hifi gear might not have insurance to cover home auditions.

This wasn't a home audition. The deposit was to listen too both sets of speakers in the store. If I bought one pair my 500.00 would be refunded.
He's out of his mind, or has SO much business he doesn't need yours. And I doubt seriously the latter.
I'd let someone put a $500 refundable deposit on my credit card to do an in-home audition for three days. But $500 for an in-store would definitely get me to do an eye to eye with the dealer to let him know he'll not see me again.
See ya. Dave
In that case, the dealer should pay ME $500.
