Incredible deal on incredible amp

Ive had my BAT REXII power amp for sale for over a month on Agon with only a small amount of interest.  Ive lowered the price a couple of times.  I am having a hard time understanding the lack of interest, especially at the current price.  The only reason i am selling is I bought active speakers (ATC SCM50A) so no longer need a stand alone amp.  Otherwise,  it would have been my amp for life.  Any suggestions to make this more attractive for a sale?  I guess there is a price for everything and eventually if low enough someone would be interested.  I just think the price is so low now that i don't believe there is any interest at any price.

Wow! You really lowered the price quite a bit too.
I first saw it when you had it listed for $8,999. Now $3K less, that’s a steal.

I know that amp puts out a LOT of heat though, as I’ve owned a BAT VK-75SE previously.
Unfortunately, I don’t have the space to set the amp on it’s own, as you do in your photos. Mine have to fit in a rack.
Even with a 10" open architecture rack, I still needed a fan with the VK-75SE.
Hottest amp I’ve ever owned, even hotter than Pass Labs XA monoblocks.
Great amp, just too damn hot for my room.

Someone has to be interested at that price, someone with more space than me.

The middle of summer is bad timing to sell a tube amp, especially an amp that doubles as a room heater.  I can only use my BAT amp from the end of Nov. to beginning of April.
You should pull the ad and relist in two months.

Something is going on out there.  I had a table on here for along time offering at a price that I've seen them selling at many times  I have it priced now for $100 less than before with a best offer,  superb  table for the money, yet seems like no interest.... Good Luck Brother
