Dear OldSchoolTechCorner,
I'm sorry that I did not see the item you marked as used before.
It turned out to be a misunderstanding. We just need you provide us your serial number to verify. And we will withdraw the claim complaint.
Sincerely
SIGLENT Markrting Department

I don't personally know any of the players. This is not a legal court, and there are very few facts that can be verified. My problem with Siglent is how they tried to sweep a public discussion under the rug. Run away. Let it die down. It honestly paints a picture of the internal culture.
All companies have employees that make mistakes, the company response is what can make or break the trust of the target demographic. If they were not sneaky and shady in the way this was handled, ultimately blaming a specific person - I would have not been stirred.
Post 'facts', analysis, and opinion. I read all of this crap from the first post and decided that Siglent is on my shit list. It is not because I know any and all details, just the details that are important to me. That is how the court of public opinion works and ALL business are subjected to it. Siglent has had infinite opportunities to cool the fire and they instead threw gas on it. Even if OldSchoolTechCorner is a dishonest lying scammer, it does not matter to me. His listing was pulled and he figured out some other avenue to sell his box - I don't care.
I don't care at all about the claims or plight of the OP, I only care about the response of the accused company. The responses culminating with the CEO interview gave me more reason to doubt them than the OP. They were defensive and not apologetic. Sending a free unit is not going to cover up the way I see their corporate culture. They are only apologetic that they were caught being sneaky and shady and it became a public discussion. All the responses were PM's!! Hilarious.
I still don't know what to think of RobertBG coming in and mysteriously reading a ridiculously long thread and taking such an intense interest in something he/she has no connection with. Who does that? You have dedicated hours to the analysis and defense of this issue? I cannot think of anyone I have have ever known that would do what you are doing without some sort of motivation beyond - ' doing the right thing'.
Pretty much this. At first I thought RobertBG was some stalker with an axe to grind against the OP. When he was called out on it, a new poster immediately appearing, making the exact same arguments, typing the same way, etc.
Someone earlier mentioned it might be Siglent trying to clean things up, which I thought was just a whacky conspiracy theory.
Now? I'm starting to believe it. You're analysis is pretty spot on. Seriously, who necros a dead 50+ page thread, reads it all and then takes a vehement stance against the common perception when he has no connection to any of the players?
Thinking back, in my 20 years on the Internet, I've only ever seen it happen when the person was either:
1) Connected to the company in question.
2)Had a beef with OP on another forum.
3)Worked for a PR firm hired by the company in question.
4)Was a troll trying to get a rise out of people.
I've pretty much seen it all on the Internet, and been part of (or watched as) some of the craziest stuff you can think of. And this, it's just not logical.
I don't know who RobertBG (and his sock puppets) are, but it's clear they are very biased.
