That's not a very cool scenario. When I've encountered this type of behavior, I tend to employ the "squeaky wheel" mentality. I'm guessing you promptly paid for it & haven't received feedback either, correct? Time to put the "what have you done for me lately" shoe on the other foot.

Could be he's waiting for it to be shipped to him, so they can ship it to you. I've encounter that, they buy, then turn around and use the same images, and put it back up for auction before they even receive it. |

| i play jazz,blues,country. the clean channel is ok, needs a little reverb. i add some reverb to it, which is not that great in this amp. the distortion is horrible. tremlo does not work at 1/4 power.My twin reverb is such a better sounding amp. i am gonna stay with it. and tray to get rid of this twin |

yeah I'm really gun shy on buying a new twin that isn't a reissue that I plan to have modded.
Even the later 70's silver face ones would be a better pick IMO.
I have a 68 twin and nothing could be better.
What's your other twin like?

| it's 65 twin reverb reissue. the thing has great tone. i just put a groove tube 12ax7m in in the normal channel. kinda cool, but i am in an apartment and its a big amp for my place way loud. which attracted me to the new twin. had 1/4 power. but i picked up one of the first reissues from the 90's dirt cheap. great sound but i can't turn the volume up past 2. with the 12ax7m i can't turn the volume up past 1.5 but sounds cool. i am gonna try it in the vibrato channel which i and everyone else uses i will let you no how it sounds |

Thanks for the update ... I am NOT a fan at all of Fender distortion. But their clean channels, driven to clip are wicked for blues  |
