25.00 flat rate shipping


Audiogon sent me an e-mail yesterday that for 25.00 you can advertise a piece of equipment and pay no commission. You can also Include you're phone # in the ad. What is you're opinion about this?

"I guess my ability to infer is getting worse due to my cynical nature. :-)"

and why is that? so many years of experience and less tolerance for the bs presentation of things as better, note the small print. I hear you nonoise :)

Overall I feel this is a definite improvement. At least there is more than one option, semi kudos to Audiogon!
This is a huge improvement and a must for expensive gear that demands a phone call. Very good move Agon.

"the ability to add a VERIFIED PHONE NUMBER for prospective buyers to ask questions"

VERIFIED PHONE NUMBER??

Verified by who? By AudiogoN?

Is AudiogoN guaranteeing the phone number listed in the ad is in fact, VERIFIED, that of the username listed on the ad?
.
The way it works is this: You enter your phone number and get an automated call to that number with a code you then have to enter. Draw you own conclusions as to how well this qualifies as verified.

Not worth a damn if an Agon member's account has been hacked and the phone number on the ad is as bogus as the ad.

Agon's computer calls the bogus phone number listed on the ad. Gives the scammer on the other end the code.
YUUUP that be VERIFIED!.......
