HAVE ALL SALES STOPPED ON AUDIOGON ???

I'll tell you why I don't like selling to new guys is the will have you spend hours answering questions, taking pictures and the drop out like a bad habit...........I had a guy just yesterday have me pair up four pairs of 75 pound amplifiers and take pictures of them (36 pictures) that took two and a have hours and he really didn't want anything.....What a waste of time..............Will

I must say sales are very good for my cables and used gear now. Yes tons of questions leading to dead ends over 70% of the time, but I knew this would be the case. I try to inform and answer no matter the length and nature of the questions.

When you have a great product at a great price like you most certainly do then sales will follow!

Unfortunately tire kickers are prevalent in every walk of life and online sales of what can be viewed as "luxury goods" is especially susceptible.

I know we consider hifi essential though but Joe Public can have a differing view.

Hang in there,buyers are out there, just some minor turbulence along the way.

I have been doing this since e-bay started and since Audiogon started the first time, I guess my biggest problem is with peoples honesty , how they will tell you one thing and do something altogether different........Will

Anybody seeing any uptick in sales here or eBay or usaudiomart?
Unfortunately even with good pricing (imho) it still appears to be a very troubled market.
Only way I have sold many items is to let them go at very low pricing and even then still a fair amount of tyre kicking going on.

There are some items I have used that I can do this with if I feel I have had my monies worth out of.
However some other goods where I need to sell to fund new projects I just cannot do so it has to stay at what I consider a fair price.

To rate sales on the big three I would have to say in this order.

eBay if I sell at a no reserve auction but then you run the risk of not getting close to what you really want but at least it will go.

Audiogon if I price a desired item very keenly.

USAAudiomart bottom of the pile, usually only had silly questions from there but hey its free so there you go.
