Problem Ordering Hammond Chokes

67.101.148.30

KONA

About six weeks ago I ordered three Hammond 193L chokes from a vendor mentioned by a poster on this forum, A1 Electronics. I purchased these from their online site and made payment with a credit card through PayPal. Several days ago A1 emailed me asking for an additional $17.00 because they said that they shipped the chokes and they came back with a notice of insufficient postage ( I live in California). I told them that I had already been charged for postage when I originally purchased these items. I asked that if they were unable to send these items to me that I'd like a refund. They didn't respond to this request so I've had to open a dispute through PayPal. At the very least I think this represents poor business practices on the seller's part. I am posting this as a red flag for anyone else who may decide to use A1 Electronics.

  Parts Express has always delivered, including Hammond 193L and M.

    Just an update. Parts Express is out of the 193L until 7/15. However, they do have 193M in stock and offer free ground shipping this week. I just ordered a pair of 193M for about 125.00 shipped.
