How will the COVID-19 pandemic affect sites like Audiogon?


One would think that with social distancing and shelter in place policies, there has never been a better time for upgrading and enjoying your audio system.   But is now the time to buy and sell?  The mass unemployment and economic distress accompanying the pandemic seems certain to undermine what is essentially a luxury market encompassing both gearheads and music lovers?  What effects on buying and selling audio gear — both short and long term — can we foresee?

Practically everything made, including our medicines, has Chinese content in it. Good luck living off the China grid.
See how far that gets you.

Heck, that was a big bugaboo years when some genius discovered that most of our military gear has circuit boards made in China. The feared there could be a backdoor installed on them. Duh.

All the best,
