Years ago, I bought headphones that were ΒΌ of the price of the big name Bose and Sony's and provided at least ΒΎ the experience. When I wore them so much they eventually broke years later, I purchased some more from their website. Turns out they have been taking orders and haven't been delivering products. Their Facebook page still posts ads and the comments are people talking about how it was a scam. That's $170 dollars I won't get back. It's weird because I really liked their product and had no reason to think they would suddenly stop delivering. Very strange.
Brand is Cowin, by the way.
I believe this company used to sell MP3 players about 20 years ago. I had several and they were all actually pretty decent products at the time. if its the same company I am rather sad that it may have devolved into some sort of scam.
You can contest that sort of thing with your bank if you are quick about it. Probably too late now, but I had something similar happen and that's how I resolved it. In my case, the rumor was the owner of the website had died
Yeah I wasn't fast enough and I also tried to contact their support and such. Oh well
