My order arrived last week.

No problems apart the VERY long shipping time.

I have been using Audiotek for a fea times now, and sofar iam happy, shipping can be slow, but as the shipping is free i guess he send the packes as cheap as posible, but i usualy get them after 3 weeks and iam ok whit that .. I did buy a per of Tang Band W4-1320SF for 2usd and thats cheap got them after 3 weeks

But this doesn't make up for the fact that someone won a bid for something he said he didn't have, and the other dubious bidding issues mentioned. That's enough to raise a flag that says "Enter at your own risk". I guess you can say that about anyone on eBay, but damn.

In the end I did manage to win some items with them and they all took 12-13 days to arrive. They were all less than £3 so if they hadn't turned up I wouldn't have been distraught and they were more test purchases than anything to see if they would arrive!!
But now I notice that like Andrew T mentioned the bidding items have gone and it's all Buy It Now... hmmm a shame?? I'm not too sure but still, why is it so hard to get Nichicon Muse/Elna Silmics etc from anyone in the UK?!

In Italy it's the same, but at least there are Holland and Germany!

Audio-Cube (broad range)

Banzai-Effects (convenient shipping rates)

Maybe he thought someone would bid the prices up and he'd get more than "buy it now" price, and just have none in stock if bidding didn't exceed the "buy it now" price, and/or use shills to place bids above the "buy it now price". The evidence seems to be pointing to that manner of doing business. As to obtaining Muse caps, it's not easy in the States, either. Very few vendors having not all values.

Thanks Clave, I hadn't come across those sites before! Two to add to the favourites for when I need to track down those Nichicons and Elnas! lol

By the way, seems that Andrew T was right, Audiotek are now selling as hu6073 and all the bidding items are there now!

This is just far too confusing! Why do they keep changing names?!! Alarm bells anyone?!! lol

You're welcome!

I've buyed from both and no problems at all (5-10 days delivery)

For the Nichicons this one has nice prices and a broad range:

RealAudio

But it's in Taiwan and I never tried it...

If you look at auctions the title contains the word AudioTek...

It's not the only case, others ebay shops from Asia does it.

Until goods ordered arrives I don't care about it (but I do little orders first).

It could be that I'm lucky, but until now only an ebay order never arrived and it was from Miami (USA)... (SoundCity ebay Shop )

"We're not responsible for items lost in the mail"

Obviously they refused to prove their shipment with a receipt or something...
