Has anyone heard from Jeff Silverman? I'm waiting on some harps. Starting to get worried. Is he ok?

He's owed me harps for a month, They were supposed to ship the next day, and he has not returned numerous phone calls, or emails. I have filed a claim with Paypal to get my money back-he has not answered them either.

BTW, I like your Youtube vids.

Ask Adam. They're business partners.

@ harp-er:

Before you make statements that someone is a "business partner" of another you should be damn sure what you are talking about. The implication in your post is that Adam Gussow is a "business partner" of Jeff Silverman in Harmonica 411 or HarpMart. I don't think so.

No need to get all huffy, dude. I think it's pretty well known, at least on this site, that Adam and Jeff do Hill Country Harmonica together. That's the only business I'm talkin' about.

I am not sure Jeff is still in business.
It is hearsay, but that's what I hear them say.

If he's out of business, then he shouldn't be taking orders. I heard back, and was refunded for a harp that Jeff couldn't get. Then, the three others just never came. I'm more worried that the guy is sick or hurt, than about a hundred bucks, but still. It's odd that nobody knows anything. I guess I'll contact paypal.

d.g.

I will email Jeff and ask if he has any official statement that he'd like to insert into this thread.

At his suggestion, I recently took the Harmonica411 link off of this website's "harmonicas for sale" page.

Jeff has been not just a business partner but a friend for the past three years; Hill Country Harmonica was an exhilarating ride. I wish I was able to say more, but at the present moment I'm unable to.

And yes: to the extent that Jeff and are business partners, our partnership consists solely of Hill Country Harmonica. I have zero financial stake in Harmonica411 or anything else he does in a business way--just as he has zero stake in MBH. HCH is our baby, but that's it.

I bought a few harps from Jeff in the past, they were delayed for some reason, but I did receive them :)

Paypal refunded my money this morning FWIW. If they have had contact with him, they did not indicate they did, so you probably should file with Paypal.

Good luck,

John
