too bad Audiogon seems to have morphed to fussy, picky buyers


For years I've bought and sold here with no drama but that seems to have been changing. Now sellers seem to want retail pricing for their products while wanting to low ball on anything they want to buy.

At the same time I see more and more fussy buyers nitpicking the purchase, requiring tons of hand holding and concessions after they buy a fairly represented good working order item. 

No longer fun for me unfortunately.

yeah, no worries - I never give it away, I'm never a desparate seller and- in my exp its the very people who grind you, nag you, complain and are looking to steal something at a ridiculous price that are the worst to deal with- you can never sell it cheap enough to make them happy. The best buyers are ones who buy without a lot of haggling, pay a reasonable price and know they're buying a pre-owned (and not brand new) product. Same thing when I was in the car business.
Then there was the guy who bought a $1970.00 Magnum Dynalab FM tuner from me for $400.00 and then after using it a couple of days, decides he doesn't like it and either wants his money back, or wants more money off the tuner ...
Oh-oh, and I was thinking of selling my MD102T


FM tuners are a hard sell these days

Maybe there will be a tuner resurgence like vinyl.
