I question how Drop can ethically offer this headphone amplifier for sale when it offered another, more expensive HA from the same manufacturer - Lake People manufactures the Violectric V222 - and hasn't delivered, to my knowledge, a single one of the V222s ordered last September. I speak from personal experience. I questioned Drop and Lake People's U.S. distributor, American Sound & Music (ASM), about their ongoing failure to deliver the V222 that I paid for in September and that was supposed to ship in November. The Director of Global Sales for ASM sent me an email that stated, essentially, "Oops, my bad," and promised shipment in 7-10 days from his email. That was 11/28. Still no V222.
One of the intended buyers for the V222 described the situation as a "scam." I'm not convinced of that, but I'm suspecting a bad case of "seller's remorse." I.e., someone on the sell side of the transaction has realized that they're going to take a loss on the deal and have reneged. If you buy the G111, you may very well receive your purchase on time. The G111 costs substantially less than the V222, which I assume means that it is simpler and less expensive to manufacture and distribute. If you live in California and your order of a G111 is unreasonably delayed, keep in mind that the California Attorney General accepts consumer complaints.
