I sent a Hitachi tuner to them and they returned it with the same fault. I returned it and they sent me a different one that worked. All it cost me was the shipping one way and of course the time delay for the customer. This was about one year ago.

Tip Top was sure I was wrong and there was no debating it. Both problems were very much the same as follows. They said they sent two tuners to us ( I only ordered one and only recieved one) but they said I recieved two and must return one of the tuners for a refund. After aggressive negotiations they agreed to reimburse us the charge and I was told to find someone else to repair our tuners. He said they had 5000 customers and don't need a customer like me. Their screwing up over there and it will catch up with them ..........................Charlie Charles Belich Slidewire Electronics 108 S 1st Ave. KL Hibbing , MN 55746 Ph/Fax: 218-263-7090 Mail to: seashell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (5 MB capacity) Large files to: slidewire@xxxxxxxxxx (50 MB capacity) ----- Original Message ----- From: "al m" <ampm@xxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2004 2:40 PM Subject: [TechAssist] Re: mailing tuner duds back to Tip-Top That happened to me too but it was the money order he didn't get he said. When I read him the #'s off the receipt they found it somewhere. Never had any trouble after that. I think someone opened it and forgot it was there.
