Then there will be no deal!!! I am not trusting you to send me
anything. Therefor I will hold on to my cord until you send me
a replacement. The cord is the only evidence I have of what has
happend.

Hi Roy (and Scott),I feel I should interject here. The issues at hand here are centered around constuction techniques and electrical regulations vis-a-vis the grounding concerns. Whether the cord is a real EGA product or not, we cannot confirm unless Scott can verify it being an authority at EGA.
Roy, snap some pictures of the cord and even camcorder it to retain the proof you value so highly at this point. I think in your best interests, you should try and get an actual factory new cord from EGA as it will have mush greater value than one which has been modified and worked on after market by thid parties.
Scott's words and conditions have been expressed here and I am sure that all of us would support any party who keeps to their end of the bargain.
As a last issue, remember that often in audio what often works is not the most elaborate and complicated solutions. Have you ever glanced inside a $6000 Hovland preamp? Scott for example, has given us some insight here to the quality of parts (and part treatment / conditioning) he employs in the powercords. We have to take into account the effort in research and time it takes to develop a product. A lot of what's in that cord is intellectual property too.
When issues of integrity are in question, we have to take into account that this can permanently damage reputations, and quite possibly lead to the demise of entire companies. The testimonials and reviews ARE the proof in the pudding and for this, EGA should be respected. We all have the luxury of our own discretion to determine the value of their products.
I hope that everything works out for you,
Ken.
Ken I commend you!You a are not insane on the asylum block!Scott
Hi Scott/EGA,No problem at all. It really bothers me when disagreements between customers and companies are dragged out into to public arena(s) without prior knowledge of the situtation from both perspectives. I certainly hope that a fair and hasty consensus for a satisfactory resolution can be reached. Thanks for visiting the Asylum, I always take great pleasure in reading and sharing any thoughts from the audio industry. Perhaps I can find it within my budget one day to sample and indulge in some of your product offerings.
Sincerely,
Ken
