It seems they for some reason or other ignored me and now "can't get it back". I paid $140 for the new controller boards and they tried to send me them on their own.. wtf is the point in that with no tft?

Now they are offering me the $140 back and nothing for the original screen.. I couldve sold the tft and touch panel/casing on here and got something for it fs. Im now at a loss of $269 + $180 + $140 and have ended up with a non touchscreen lilliput. Im not overly impressed to say the least.

I offered them options of
1. retrieve my tft as previously AGREED -and send me the controller board I paid for
2. just send me a new screen if you have lost my old one
3.refund me the $140 plus compensation for the old screen (I think 50% is reasonable).

they have ignored this and are just offering me the $140. What can I do?

I have to recommend that if you buy a lilliput stay well away from extreme-audio (on ebay) as they have wasted a lot of my money and now months and months later I am left with the wrong product and no help offered.

I have all the emails saved btw and they did agree to not dispose of my tft on numerous occasions... is there any way I can get compensation for this treatment?

Send them this post! Based off your information, I will not be purchasing a LCD from them, unless they come clean and do what's right! I'm tired of business selling crap, and leaving people hold their d*ck in their hand. The most successfull business' have great customer support, and based on their customer support will lead those customers to give a good review, in turn others will buy or not buy based off of that report.

Since you have access to a huge majority of people that want to buy these products, you need to let people know not to get screwed.
