HAVE ALL SALES STOPPED ON AUDIOGON ???

60% does seem like a huge discount (for a few months old item), but if nobody wants to buy it, it is too expensive for some reason. If it were something I wanted, I would jump on it for sure, but 60% off of something I am not desperate for is just 40% of wasted money no matter how fantastic the item is. I think people see it that way.

I had some stuff listed at a really low price and it didn't sell so I just gave it to charity. 

Audiogon doesn’t know when to leave a good thing.
I spoke with quite a few of my colleagues and we all agreed that the new format sucks.

Uberwaltz, it is not a pointless thread if it helps some understand the realities of the current market.  The 'give to charity" is always a nice option. They will of course usually turn it over at the fast sale market price. (And an occasional lucky audiophile will benefit along with the charity) Occasionally a group home,  community service for the aged or arts oriented charity might use equipment as is.
