What is going on? No-one buys good stuff priced right.

Orpheus10, you are right about while we still can. Climate change will finish all this off soon enough, rich and not rich will have the same fun.
$20k for a great tonearm sounds reasonable to me. How about $50k for Hermes handbag or $3k for a bottle of wine?

Inna, 20K for a tone arm; when are you going to invite me to your chateau. I just got back with the material to construct a table for my TT, and I'm going to re-record all my LP's after I receive and install the new cartridge. After that, all I'm going to do is;

Enjoy the music.

You see, I didn't say that I could ever afford it or that I would buy it even if I could. I always spend less than I can. 

Please pretend you never read my previous post. (most of you won't have to pretend)

I, too am outraged and saddened that no one is buying this perfectly wonderful gear. It is age discrimination, just as plain as the nose on my face, and it sickens me!

I propose to start a charitable fund to find a good home for each piece of worthy gear. Let us band together and open our wallets until every Dias is in a den and every Lamm has a living room.!

Just send your donations to me at **CENSORED by AG**

I am happy to do my part for Volunteers for the Benefit of  Acoustic Perfection. V-BAP. (Isn't that something Ella sang?)

I will keep a judicious inventory of all pieces liberated from Agon. But adoptive parent(s) must remain anonymous.  

I sold it all just before the market collapsed.

Small and cheap beats big and expensive.
