Thanks again to all who posted! Couple of thoughts:
There are some good ideas here and I plan to use them. If I make an offer at less than asking price I plan to send a short note along with it. Again not to sell my position but explain myself.
I have never had, or received an offer at 10% of the original retail price. I'd ignore it but I understand it would be annoying.
I am always surprised by those responses that ignore the questions or thoughts of a post and disparage people based on some weird and likely unjustified sense of superiority. The fact that someone offers less than what you want doesn't mean that they "can't afford things". Can you imagine a business concept that's "Just pay the price (reasonable or not) or just butt out". WOW, really. I am very happy not to be in that league.
I'm also surprised by the few posts that want to actively target people they perceive as a lowballer based on an undefined standard of their own making. What hubris is this? :-)
Simao - sorry man, there's no accounting for kooky people. Hope it sold and BTW I know the feeling of liquidating based on divorce. Not fun at the time (about 10 years ago) but the rebuilding has been slow and truthfully really fun. First system after the divorce was JBL 110's, a flogged Luxman integrated, and old Phillips TT and it ROCKED (metaphorically).
Isochronism - As they say on the internets... Y U NO LIKE ALEC B??? I mean I don't think I'd want to go drinking with him but as a music moderator he's pretty good... OK I probably would go drinking with him.
Anyway thanks and happy listening! Hooking up the MD tuner later today can't wait listen.
