Amuti23..... Advice please!!, by johnnyh on Nov 3, 2011 12:40:02 GMT 1, This thread will disappear but there should be a sticky thread that lists all of the dodgy or suspected dodgy dealers of various forms. So that people can check before they do a deal - to be fair the odd gallery might get accused wrongly and the thread can put their comments on but I being not present in the UK would really appreciate it as I often buy at distance.
Could one of the moderators take a look at this and how to develop it fairly. As this issue seems to be more and more of a common problem especially as business times get tougher. It is after all peoples hard earned cash and savings that are being dealt with. Ok her lots of people got their stuff in the end but a lot of work had to go into it.
Also takes away Bit of the love for a piece when it has been a complete pain in the arse to get it.
I had a couple of prints damaged quite badly by Cadogan Tate damaged them quite badly offered to pay 65 quid to repair them. After a long battle and the threat of legal action they then paid the full value of the prints one was a Banksy so in total about 4 grand. But after it all regardless of the money I did not want the fu@kin thing as was so fed up of it. Got the money back anyway. Have never replaced that print.
So think this would be a great rescource
Just an idea Johnny

Amuti23..... Advice please!!, by bomber88 on Nov 3, 2011 13:29:31 GMT 1, Talking of karma. I received this email from Amuti:
DUE TO UNSEEN CIRUMSTANCES (LYING F*&KING BUILDERS) WE HAVE POSTPONED THE EXHIBITION AND LAUNCH UNTILL
16/11/11
WE ARE REALLY SORRY FOR EVERYONE THAT WAS PLANNING ON ATTENDING, BUT LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU ON THE 16TH.
I hate feeling smug but hey a little bit of mild retribution can warm the soul.

Amuti23..... Advice please!!, by Bill Hicks on Dec 5, 2011 20:55:07 GMT 1, Just spoken to my credit card company who are claiming the money back from Amuti & refunding me, Amuti is well know to this card company! This is a free service for anyone who has made payment via any credit card but I was also informed that (dreadful) paypal will do this also if you make a full claim against Amuti. I was also advised that anybody who has had any trouble with Amuti should contact trading standards as this is (still) an on going scam by AMUTI.

Amuti23..... Advice please!!, by bomber88 on Dec 5, 2011 21:52:40 GMT 1, Oddly enough I have just got a comprehensive email from Amuti telling me that it has been a good first year for Amuti Editions. Laurence is definitely alive and kicking but obviously has problems locating the Post Office. Anyway I can confirm that yes he is a tosser.

Amuti23..... Advice please!!, by bomber88 on Dec 5, 2011 22:17:45 GMT 1, Problem is that you do not respond to emails on the address you have stated. A straightforward customer service is responding to your customers if they request an update after they've paid. Maybe I've got this all wrong. Maybe reason why I wouldn't buy jack from you ever again.

Amuti23..... Advice please!!, by Baby Dave on Dec 5, 2011 22:25:38 GMT 1, You're also ALWAYS late on stuff..... From my experience, you are late as you do not actually have the stuff in stock. Whats the point in telling people to email you if you dont answer? Whats the point in coming on here and trying to appease people when your track record shows you will just let them down? Its Christmas now Lawrence. Settle up the late orders and perhaps try and re-evaluate your selling position
You have pissed off a lot of people in this forum community. I hate to think how many others you have screwed over and pissed off

Amuti23..... Advice please!!, by .dappy on Dec 6, 2011 0:33:03 GMT 1, Why don't you stop taking orders clear the backlog and start afresh in the New Year?
If you keep this up then everything will pile up again as it did a little while ago - you suffered and everyone suffered - do you want to let it get like that again?
Remember: 'We canโt solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.'
As you state 'all will be delivered way before Christmas' ... well you've quite literally got 17 days (being generous - special delivery for UK). You have already missed most of the world; and have just a few days left for Europe, US and Canada: airmail only option now)
This has the feeling of a ponzi scheme in another guise - keep taking the orders to pay for the fresh orders to pay for the old orders ...
As Confucius says: 'If it moo's it is a cow, if it quacks it is a duck'

Your best isn't good enough - face facts. You are out of your depth.
A little confusion and chaos is no way to run a business.
Stop advertising something you cannot deliver. There are laws that prevent this type of trading.

Amuti23..... Advice please!!, by bomber88 on Dec 14, 2011 23:56:06 GMT 1, A very good friend informs me that Laurence from Amuti also promised that all outstanding items would be delivered early this week. Alas he also has had no response to emails and the telephone goes unanswered. It would appear he has lied through his fu@king teeth again. It's a long shot but if you are reading this L- HE KNOWS WHERE YOU LIVE. Not my threat but his. Cheers and Merry Christmas
