HAVE ALL SALES STOPPED ON AUDIOGON ???

Thought I would give an update based on sales price of gear of late.

it appears vinyl is pretty healthy, sold three tt and four carts fairly quickly for fair money.
cables and the ilk also fairly easy sales again at fair prices.
good speakers always sell it seems.

amps if a well renowned brand and In good order also moving ok

the kicker to the selling trend is more modern tech like DACs and streaming devices. Does not matter how highly regarded they were, the tech is so fast moving these are definitely a hard sell at decent fair money . Even priced way below market is still a slow sell.

thats my take on it from this year so far.

overall not terrible imho

@stereo5 ,
That sound like the same guy who was selling a pair of Vandy's a few years ago. They, too, took years to sell. ( and, a custom paint job, too).

Thoughts on the market so far?

Anybody having good or bad business?

Have done pretty well over last couple months on sales at what I term fair to me prices both here and on the Bay.

However some sellers still need to work on their negotiating tactics a little as I found out today. But that's life.

UBER:    I would have to ask if you are continual selling items or just one's and two's .......The market place seems to be approached differently by people who see the seller as a dealer...........And that seems to justify the treatment the seller receives.....I find the people doing the most questions, do by far the least buying......I would call them "Dreamers".....It seems that the more questions they ask ???  The more in touch with the item they feel .......I have even tried to let people buy on a two month pay out, just to help the sales process.......But it is very easy to lose patience with people when they have you do very time consuming picture taking and sending and you never even get a "Thanks"..........Will

One issue I am a bit perplexed with is sellers not taking new users seriously.
I have seen a few posts from Agon members not wanting to sell to those with little or no feedback.
With Audiogon's policies, I can't see how a seller would be taking a risk in selling to such a person- And, we all have to start somewhere.
