Hi, interesting to read your comments, I have probably been had too, coming from Guernsey in Channel Islands I personally took my US Strat for a sale, had confirmation from Pete it was sold in February, still no cheque. Have attempted to telephone but to no avail and have finally received an email from Andy below: Jay,
sorry for the delay in reply. Some major problems have hit the business during the past few weeks.
The Inland Revenue have taken out a bankruptcy order againt me which has frozen my bank accounts and my trading; I am trying to see what I can do to get Agency Sales payments paid. I have an interview witth the Official Receiver's office the week after next, and should know more after that.
At the moment I am unable to make any payments or trade.
Andy
: Having had my guitar modified and sold without my consent I started legal proceedings, only to find out that andy's is in liquidation (this is its third re-incarnation, the workshop, guitar center and drum shop have all folded and re-surfaced at some point - look them up in companies house) so he thinks my money is safe in his pocket. So beware, when the shop re-opens (and their new website) just walk by.

Yes, it took me almost year to get a cheque out of him for a lovely Guild D-25 he sold 'on my behalf'. I had to actually go down to the store to get it, and his sleazy bookkeeper Steven wrote me a post-dated cheque for £750... that bounced. The company entity on the cheque was 'Anbul Ltd' - no use pursuing a shell company for money - and I've read the shop is going into liquidation, but Andy Preston was operating as a sole trader which means he is PERSONALLY liable for any debts the store incurred. Unless he himself is going bankrupt - and he has no assets - then you may still be able to get at least some of your money back.
