HAVE ALL SALES STOPPED ON AUDIOGON ???

Hope that works Jerry.

Although tbh I have come across sellers on here who just do not seem to care about selling at all.

I have had instances where messages not replied to and even ignored with the public nudge, then it is just time to say bye!

Good luck!

My most recent experience on here suggests that some members just do not truly want to sell their item at all.

Without naming I found an integrated amp very interested in here at a fair price, cross checking on eBay showed same amp/seller but $200 LESS than he had on here.
I sent a message asking if he could do a better price right here as an eBay sale would cost him near $300 in fees alone and as he was already $200 less there they could afford to cut a break on price here AND still net more for their item.

Their reply was terse and simply said they thought my negotiating tactics were very strange!

Say what? I was trying to get the guy some more money, and save myself a few dollars I admit, but how odd!

Some people just cannot be reached it seems!

I see a lot of the same items listed, relisted, relisted again, etc.  I remember seeing this one ad for a pair of school bus yellow Wilson speakers.  I have seen the ad for 2 years and the picture is of them in the guys garage next to his Porsche.  The ad always says Porsche not included.  Honestly, how many of us want school bus yellow speakers in our  living room?  Perhaps that is why they haven't sold.  Also, the price was rather high and he kept mentioning the custom paint job on the speakers.

Thought I would give an update based on sales price of gear of late.

it appears vinyl is pretty healthy, sold three tt and four carts fairly quickly for fair money.
cables and the ilk also fairly easy sales again at fair prices.
good speakers always sell it seems.

amps if a well renowned brand and In good order also moving ok

the kicker to the selling trend is more modern tech like DACs and streaming devices. Does not matter how highly regarded they were, the tech is so fast moving these are definitely a hard sell at decent fair money . Even priced way below market is still a slow sell.

thats my take on it from this year so far.

overall not terrible imho

@stereo5 ,
That sound like the same guy who was selling a pair of Vandy's a few years ago. They, too, took years to sell. ( and, a custom paint job, too).
