HAVE ALL SALES STOPPED ON AUDIOGON ???


I haven't sold hardly anything in a month, is anyone else having that problem,or is it me........autospec
autospec
I sold all of my gear
But not one single item through Audiogon!

All via eBay and even Craigslist!

Total waste of prepaid fees!

Not happening again.

May be higher fees on eBay but at least stuff is moving at a fair price to me.
Here only stupid offers.
Actually I am really not that surprised that a lot of sales have stopped on Agon tbh.

Past few days I have found a number of sellers who have same item on here and ebay ( as do I) BUT.....

They are all asking MORE for the item here than on ebay which is plain STUPID! Some in the order of 300 to 500!  Ebay fees are considerably higher than here especially for higher priced goods as they are 10% right up to a max of $750.
So let us say you are selling an item at $3000, on ebay you will pay $300 fees, here you prepay and it is $50, where is the problem in doing the math that selling here will save you $250 in fees alone.

So WTF are they doing asking for MORE on here?
Greedy?
Hoping as it is more a niche website, members will stupidly pay more than on ebay?

You got me!

My last 3 items I sold on ebay at no reserve auctions and best offer and every item ended up selling for MORE than I had them on here for, not the other way round! Yes I still lost more in fees and I would have preferred them to have sold here but if its a dead market here what can you do?
Could be that they are positioning their goods in anticipation of offers and a compromise that gets them to the same end game?
