Bought a Moondrop Dark Saber that broke within 5 days due to an extremely tight 2 pin connector and a weak, hollow plastic shell. Was told this isn't considered a defect and would have to pay more than 50% of the cost of of the product to replace less than 50% of the product.

scam. sent me smsl—9 which went bad after 2 weeks, refused to refund. avoid at any cost, trust me you will be scammed. and you will get no support from them.

Avoid at all cost. Sent two Topping LA90 amps. Both defective after just a few weeks. Its been six months now and still no replacement. APOS has no legit phone number that will contact a person. Auto generated email reply once a week. Basically two defective products. Out $1600. Look up address APOS is run out of an apartment. Not legit business.

Abandoned by company. This started when I ordered a Topping Pa5 from them in December 2021. It took several weeks to ship out from them- understandable since it was a new product being freighted from China, but it was not mentioned. Ship-by date was not met. Product arrives fine, but breaks several months later. Sent back for warranty and replaced for price of shipping. Several months later in late October, it breaks again. Same amount of time, and breaks in the same way. Looking online at forums, this issue is not isolated. The product in question (Topping Pa5) is defective. The product is sent back in again... nothing for three weeks. They get back after I reach out to them, and provide an invoice to pay for shipping again. I receive a coupon for the product, and then I find out it's "out of stock." It was never restocked. Get spammed multiple times per hour by an Apos bot telling me to purchase now or lose my coupon, and eventually get back into contact with apos support a week later. They offer a blue unit, or several months of waiting for a black one. I choose to wait. Over a month later, they contact me again saying that Black will not be available... because the product was discontinued. They offer blue again. I decline and ask for a refund. They take over three weeks and a reminder email to get back to me. They offer 85% back, only in store credit. I ask for 85% back in cash, or 100% in store credit at the minimum. As of writing, this is week 5 of waiting for a response.

Topping DAC died after ~6 months. Got an RMA from Apos.audio and when they received it, said I’d destroyed the device by updating firmware. I never did anything of the sort. They said I should take it up with Topping. Topping’s support email address doesn’t receive emails. Guess who has a REALLY expensive paperweight?

I was sent a defective product and after numerous attempts to get an RMA, I still haven't heard anything.
