    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    OK, This thread is almost 2 years old and from the first post it is bemoaning slow delivery and poor contact, I find it hard to have sympathy for people who have ordered in the last year when this thread is so easy to find. I have purchased 2 tonearms from Alfred, both were slow to arrive (but...

    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    Launch a complaint through Ebay, Alfred takes those seriously because it cuts off his money. And please remember there are people here (not me) that have been waiting a year for a tonearm. So either complain and get a refund or wait for your arm.

    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    Hi Adrian, I presumed you purchased from an ebay auction, the easiest way to get Alfred to make contact will be by making a nondelivery complaint to ebay

    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    The problem is that ebay complaints was really the only weapon you had with Alfred, Complaints would cut off his money flow and would normally get a result (or at least a reply), now that weapon is gone, I see he is still selling tonearms (sometimes) on his daughters account....., I guess if you...

    I am pretty sure there are time limits on the money back guarantee from Ebay and paypal. I am sorry for all of the people that have been caught in this situation.

    I totally feel for you, I bought 2 arms from Alfred and had to fight tooth and nail to get them delivered. I hope you get your arm or refund in the near future

    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    Um yea……. Delivery in just a few days is Alfred’s standard opening gambit, then after a myriad of excuses the buyers will end up here bleating.

    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    I got the shipping info for my brothers 10 inch, Alfred was kind enough to include a couple of photos of the arm and the extra lighter counterweight he is including for the AS309 I purchased last year (with certain headshell cart combos I need to use both weights and they have to sit to close to...

    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    Yes the arms are great, I love my 309 that I got last year, people have just lost confidence in the communication and delivery of the product. A few people I know have expressed interest in the arm and I have told them all the same thing “be prepared for a lengthy wait and a lot of excuses”, my...

    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    Alfred, Interesting that you state you have orders waiting for a year, when I emailed you January about a 2nd arm you were talking about an arm being ready to ship in 10 business days ( I laughed to myself when I read that).. I am happy with my Bokrand 12 inch that I got off you last year but...

    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    Yes but he will still happily give you a (totally made up) delivery time frame and take your money for a new order, really Alfred would be better to get off ebay until he has some stock built up and then sell it, it seems hard to fathom why he would want to operate in this fashion.

    Ordering a Bokrand Tonearm

    Mine is wired from cart pins to RCA plugs in silver, so I dont have the 5 pin, I ordered my arm on the 30th of July and I got the DHL notification yesterday. Alfred has been pretty good with returning my messages etc. Although it may benefit him to change his expected delivery timeframe on Ebay...
