AudioNL.hu ---> fraudulent online shop?

kategra84 · 5th May 2011, 05:05 PM

I don't know if this is the right place to post this....but has anyone bought something from AudioNL.hu ? Is the shop for real??????

I bought a Peerless SLS 830669 12" woofer 2 days ago and the only thing i got is the PAYPALL invoice by email.

When i log in on the online shop, i can no longer see my order, even tho right after i made the order i could see it. Now it says "You have not yet made any purchases."

I wrote them on their "Contact us" link on they site, both in English and Hungarian and they didn't reply.
I called them, one guy answered, he didn't know English but managed to send me an SMS with a telephone number from Norway. I spoke with that guy, he said he will look into it, but he was to eager to close the conversation....

So, did anybody had any experience with AudioNL.hu ????????

no personal experience, some folks i know ordered some crossover parts from there that never arrived. lucky for them the orders where not pre-payd.

my advice is to stay away from any hungarian company.
i order my stuff usualy from slovakia or romania. anywhere is better by far than from hungary.

A friend of mine, who speaks Hungarian, talked with the shop manager and he said that Shipping cost is calculated wrong, it only applies to Hungarian destinations even if you select other countries in the ordering process. He also said that shipping to my country ,Romania ,(by the way, Romania and Hungary share a border) would cost more then €100, more then the woofer + VAT itself -----WTF???????

They offered to ship the woofer in a city in Hungary, as if i lived in Hungary! I requested to cancel the order and in the end got a refund. Needless to say I lost ~ 2.5€, don't know if it's all PayPall fee or my bank commissions on euro/my currency conversion.

I don't get it, why AudioNL has an English language option and you can actually order and pay with credit card through PayPall if they can't ship the goods outside Hungary, even if you select other countries form the drop menu?

Lesson learned: Never buy something online from a new shop without speaking all the details with the shop first!!!
