Paradyme Digital Speaker" aka Southwest Audio scam in parking lot Austin Texas

OK, looks like I've found a support group! I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one taken. I don't usually take the time to write reports like this, but I want to do whatever I can to assist others in avoiding the same plight.

If you are like me, you are reading this because it's too late. You did research on your purchase only to find that you've been had. I only do this in hope that someone will read this BEFORE they encounter the happy, courteous guys only there to steal your money.

Same story with me, only the brand name is PARADYME. I've noticed a trend in that they like to make their brand names similar to REAL products: Audiofile = Audiophase; Paradyme = Paradigm; DOGG Digital = well, there my theory gets shot...
I may have caught on to their copycat scheme had I only heard of the real Paradigm brand. But alas, ignorance was my downfall.

What sucks is that I already took out a $30 ad in the paper for these things. Add that to the $250 cash they got from me for a pair and they owe me $280 back. I'll try the local pawn shop deal and see what happens. Maybe I'll get lucky. Hey, at least they do actually work! And they look decent, too.

I just hope I see their black suburban again. Maybe I'll chuck one of these through their windsheild....
