Mike Melzer (The Means Of Production) sold me a vintage Neuman U87 microphone for $2500. When it arrived it was a Neuman U87ai (the wrong model!) He promised me a full refund including shipping and has yet to make good on it. He still owes me $1541.86. He promised to make payments and did send me $1000 but now he has stopped e maling me or returning calls. I'm tired of waiting for my refund. His promise of a full refund is stated in this e mail:

Hi Ken, this is to confirm that we will refund your money on the U87, including shipping charges. Please send the mic via Fedex 3 day. My apologies for the screwup!

Thanks,

Mike Meltzer
