I probably have not read all of this carefully enough but I do get the sentiment.
It has been clear to me for some time that many many corporations in all arenas of consumer life as well as in much more important arenas (political, finance etc.) have simply become bullies and LIARS. Don't like it?...talk to my on hold music or my falsely polite and unhelpful human robots.
Sadly what I'm also seeing is that individuals and small businesses are becoming the same way...incompetent, lazy, unresponsive or worse cheaters and rip off artists.
I had an SOB on another audio site sell me a TT with a bent tail on the arm. I had purchased it as a gift for a friend. It was packed well and in no way was any shipping damage evident nor could the arm have been damaged in this way by shipping. Even after sending pics etc...this SOB wouldn't take it back and insisted I "contact the Post Office"...This lying cheat is still active on that board and acts like the voice of wisdom...he is exemplary of what I see going on.
Sadly this pathetic cheat did all of this to make $175 bucks on a Phillips "novelty" TT... I didn't want to start a fight on the BB so I ended up eating the loss...
I could so on and on and you may disagree but this is my 2 cents...I think it has some validity as does the OPs basic sentiment. The only antidote for this I feel is to make sure I never do this garbage to others...be fair, be honest, be empathetic and give back instead of just taking all the time..
