This is the email exchange which leads me to conclude that it's not safe to deal with Revanche LLC:

Thank you.

I appreciate that. It actually makes me feel better that you say that, since I actually got worried that I was overreacting to his procrastination and silence.

I notice that you have the lyra on ebay. Do you know if it will work with a KVM?

edit:

good edit btw.

I've never tried it, but I cannot see a reason why not.

The lyra is pretty good.
edit: I'm sure I've read somewhere that it works with KVM switches. Haven't tried that myself though.

The first version didn't support the multimedia keys of a PC keyboard.

Jens Schoenfeld made a second version called Lyra II.
This version supports the multimediakeys too. It uses the MMKeyboard software.

I don't know if Red has the new version in stock, but Vesalia does.

arnljot: sorry to hear about your bad experience. fortunately, I've traded with many people in the Amiga community and have only had positive experiences. Many I have sent, cheques to and had no "protection" whatsoever, but thankfully all have delivered. It's sad to hear of one rotten apple spoiling the cart :(

Anyway, I just wanted to ask...it looks like you paid this cretin via PayPal. I don't know if your PayPal account purchases are linked to your credit card but if they are and it is a VISA card then you are covered for this. All you have to do is phone your CC company and explain to them what has happened and ask them about issuing a "Chargeback" or compensation by some other means.

All CC purchases are covered, even between private individuals and through PayPal...at least here in the UK. So it might be worth looking into.

Just a thought.

@MozzerFan

Yeah, I'll wait for the Lyra 2 and Micromys V3. Maybe Amikit will carry them. It's closer :)

They were reported to be ready 6th of november, but I guess there will be a little wait.

I'm used to it...

@arkanoid

I know. I've worked with banks and CC-companies many years :-/ But it's a pain to file a chargeback, because according to PP rules, the 20 day period is long gone to file a dispute.

And if I file one with my CC-company, I'll get in trouble with PP and get problems using it with others later on.

That's what sucks with PP...
