Re: [elektron] Bad Support?

2005-04-30 by thebedroom23

i am a usa resident.  i emailed daniel from elektron about a warranty repair situation about 
two months ago.  I received a relatively quick response. Problem is I have sent it to their 
repair tech in the USA in CALIFORNIA.  I have written to daniel about the fact that it was 
promised back to me by now and after a few days I received a telephone number and email  
from him for their US tech.  I have emailed the us tech twice, called him twice and received 
no response.  I emailed daniel about the situation and recived no word back from him 
either.  It has now been over two weeks and no response from either party.  I am, really 
starting to get annoyed.  I understand that they are a small company and getting this new 
product on the shelves (uwave) keeps them in business. But for those of us that have 
invested well over a thousand dollars in the survival of the company by purchasing a 
product are ignored it gets a bit frustrating.  Though I love the monomachine, I am 
seriously considering selling it off if I ever get it back from the tech to by a spectralis.  At 
least Jorge answers his emails.  maybe i am just getting bent a bit after a couple of drinks 
but try living without your MD or Monomachine for a a couple of months when it has 
become the center of your setup and see how pissy you get.
