Yes sales are slower than ever on this site.....in general that is. Sure pricing, summer months and other factors play a role, but under it all we are buying less as audiophiles.  The market is indeed slowing and most are just becoming more content with what they have and are getting off the buy/sell cycle.  We are aging and have been there and done that for years.  The pool of buyers willing to try a piece and sell is shrinking.  
The trick is buying right and selling right. As someone pointed out, 50% is about right unless 1) the item is virtually brand new 2) really old 3) in fair condition 4) a hot and desirable item 5) an esoteric item not well supported 6) old tech in a rapidly evolving digital world. I’ve recently sold some cables on Audigon and just bought a subwoofer today. And I might be selling my PSB Imagine T3s soon. I’ll make you a good deal!
Actually it was an unnamed dealer north of the border. I’m sure plenty of people would sell through PayPal. I was just venting. I also believe people are asking too much for used equipment. You take it home and use it for a year expect 1/2 of purchase price unless it’s one of the big names.
