A call to use the system A'Gon has in place...


I have come to a point where I have to ask members and non members to use the rating system AudioGon has in place. When posting an ad, the rating guide is right there for you. What you call a 10/10 I may not, so rather than use our own system, please rate your stuff accordingly.

Thanks.

My only objection to the Agon system is a 9/10 rating says lightly used, an 8/10 rating makes it seem like it has a cosmetic flaw. Suppose you are selling a piece of quality gear, that you have used and enjoyed for a year. Its not lightly used. It has no cosmetic flaws. So what is it , and 8 and 1/2. I feel this needs to be clarified. Thanks.
I tend to like the rating system ,but don't think there should be a 10/10 unless its new or just open box . I think most users are pretty good but others take advantage of the system a bit...I try to under rate a bit and try to provide the right picture of the product before the person gets it.
i don't like the nine myself. i'm selling a couple of pieces i purchased here as nines and downgraded them to 8's i the ads i posted. i think that alot of sellers don't read the ratings and definetely don't read the in depth ratings. of course some are overrating due to bias or dishonesty. i think many sellers rate their items as an afterthought. anyway it's very subjective. i consider brittany spears a 6.

Everybody knows my 9 is different than your 9. We are working with the integrity of people. There's lots of differences there as well.----BUT, we gotta start somewhere.--- I'll always shake my head over a person buying something at 65% off and expecting BETTER than NIB. I think the age factor is important. A product less than a year old should be close to nib.--- Unless it is priced at 30% of new.---Jeez, you want new---PAY FOR It---This IS a used sight after all. It should work like a new piece and look like a new piece from 2/3 feet away----- That's a 9 for me.
