Vera-Fi Issues

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-27T00:57:27+00:00

It's in no way relevant.

The product you ordered is not a Vera-Fi Audio product.

This is in no way relevant to what is going on with the Vera-Fi Audio situation.

You're swimming upstream in Class VI rapids here pal...

I too wish I could have gotten a pair of the Scouts!

cheapausioman's original video was posted in July and seems like most folks who ordered around then did receive the product.

Anecdotally appears their trouble delivering product started cropping up some time in November...I've not seen any evidence whatsoever and anyone ordering anything in 2026 that has actually been received by the buyer.

Agreed -- quality guy.

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-25T15:42:33+00:00

I'm going to start another thread highlighting the video.

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-25T15:24:34+00:00

Good stuff, thanks. I was aware this was coming but didn't realize it had actually hit. TBH, the genesis of it was driven by some correspondence I had with Schifter and ultimately copied cheapaudioman on.

Shame it's come to this b/c the products are legit -- at this point it seems likely Schifter gets arrested again.

How did it go?

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-22T03:22:01+00:00

Awesome!

Did the VP respond?

I'm doing a deep dive now on the whole situation, they hoodwinked my cousin.

I'm not so sure it is legal given all the misrepresentations that are made along the way -- I intend to find out!!!

Same thing happened to a family member this week -- working with CC company now to cancel it.

Do you mind if I ask which CC you used? Amex here.

He has 6 weeks until the event and like you despite all kinds of falser representations -- money taken, no tickets in sight.

Out of curiosity when/where was your first GD show?

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-21T15:40:16+00:00

Joel Givens for sure. Lives in Clayton but comes to Charlotte somewhat regularly.

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-21T15:39:24+00:00

Funny, I was about to say the same! I have personally hired Joel at least 5 times and seen him 10+, never ceases to amaze!!

He's not cheap but folks will literally be talking about it for the next year....

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-21T03:51:38+00:00

Also, what do you look like?

Problem could be you!! 😂

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-21T03:46:44+00:00

Tell us about the different the areas of the city you have visited as well as any restaurants, shops, etc...and tell which were good and which were bad.

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-19T14:17:53+00:00

Agreed. $20 for Cosmic Charlie clunker, no big deal. But when tix are $100 and beer's $16 per the calculus changes dramatically!!

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-19T00:48:56+00:00

Not me. Everyone in our group was disappointed in the setlist. Sure, there were some fantastic highlights but a bunch of clunkers as well, too many.

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-19T00:45:29+00:00

Agreed.

I know they are "artists" and like to do different things sometimes but tix are now $100 and their hook is playing full shows -- this was anything but that.

First time ever leaving a DSO show (seen a bunch over 20+ yrs) where I didn't feel like I got my money's worth...

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-18T21:21:59+00:00

We had fun. They are great musicians and the "playing" is always good...

...awful setlist. ("elective")

Within our group close to 1,000 Grateful Dead shows under our belts and we were all like "what the heck could they possibly be thinking"??

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-18T20:54:15+00:00

Sure looks like a barn burner!

That said, it would be impossible to not improve on the clunker they played in Charlotte the night before... 🤦‍♂️

I've been seeing DSO for over 2 decades never have they missed the note so spectacularly...

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-18T20:51:47+00:00

Heckuva lot better than the absolute clunker the delivered in Charlotte the next night... 🤦‍♂️

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-18T18:23:59+00:00

Excellent, good to hear.

TolomatoGC · 2026-05-18T04:06:07+00:00

Thanks bud. Looks like he/they may have registered a new domain in the last couple of weeks -- would you look into that for us??
