How would you run an audio salon?

Hey Jazdoc...could also assemble a castle's worth of assets, make your way into musicianship; especially jazz...ultimately qualify for medicaid.

........."As you can see, one is not able to get much practical or personaly meaningful information from Audiogon on a consistent basis. Everyone is biased, everyone plays favorites and no one has it all figured out."

So, uh, did the dog die, or did you get an invite to divorce court today?

That's a mighty critical statement.

i would have a problem selling a product i don't personally like. i think it's a matter of integrity not to misrepresent your principles.

i think it's better to cater to yourself first and the customers, second. you will get more respect from people that way.

Following up on Dave B's comments, I think there has been some very interesting posts. If the average retailer followed a small percentage of them, he would do well. I tend to agree though, that starting a High End Audio salon is the first step to bankruptcy.

Blindjim, none of the above (no dog/happy marriage). Not critical either really, just reality! Any dealer is going to sell what he has to offer..Duh! I'd rather draw on a larger universe of possibilities for the customer. That being said, there is a very cool historic property for sale across the street from me...Hmmm, make a very nice high end salon:)
