In Reply to: DTVcity: order complete in just under a month! posted by petew on January 15, 2002 at 07:09:20:
Pete,Not fair. You've gained our attention with excitable messages regarding a mysterious, yet disastrous, transaction with DTVcity.
Yet for some reason you haven't shared the details. How come?I've been interested in some of DTVcity's products, in fact am counting on buying one, so it would be helpful to have some details about what you went through, so I can make a better-informed decision.
Thanks,
Rich H.

you're at a "T" intersection with your best bud from Nude Hampsta riding shotgun.traffic is heavy, and you're looking to make a left, waiting for a break in traffic, while your buddy is looking to the right, sayin," Ok, Ok, Ok, Ok, Ok, Ok, Ok....."
but there's no break comming from your left...
finally you get an opening, at which time you notice your shotgun observer has stopped sayin "Ok" because he's not quite sure you can get across ahead of the oncomming traffic from his direction.
it sounds like this: "Ok, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok....try yit"
To sum up my experience: when I placed the order they had nothing that I wanted in stock, even though they promise shipping the order the same day. I'm not sure they even have a "place", I suspect their "warehouse" is virtual (it's just a guy with a computer and an answering service). It took me seven phone calls and five emails and just under a month of waiting to get them to deliver the order, and I was lied to at every step of the way. I was told they were very busy and that they didn't like my "tone" (this was after I sent them a copy of their email that said the "2-day overnight delivery was sent last week"--with a fake tracking number no less). They are a dirt-ball, half-assed, ignorant den of scumbags...but that's just my experience.
Everything was "drop-shipped" from the manufacturer. The delivery company they use went to a house half a block away and was about to leave with the TV when I chased them down. The truck driver looked at the "11" on the street address and decided it was "2" (and yes, he was a stupid Italian, if that's what you're thinking). He'd also managed to rip off all the "anti-tipping" labels on the shipping container. You don't have to think too hard to guess why--just look at the forklift holes through the box. The whole business was a horrific nightmare.
You might save yourself some trouble by just ordering direct from the manuafcturers.
or try these guys:
Thanks Pete, that's valuable info.I was thinking about buying an articulated wall mount from those guys, but now I'll reconsider.

I strongly recommend you avoid them, unless it's a last resort, and you are willing to harass them daily and wait a very long time.
