Audio discounts during Coronavirus

I tend to agree with 3 easy payments about buying from dealers to help them out. In my part of the country, I try to practice buying local.

It seems to me it's fair if a local dealer has a sale and discounts for the purpose of staying open but than haggle with them is akin to a vulture!

jrwaudio,

I have ab OPPO player and I can't see why anyone would bother playing CD's anymore when you can just sit on your sofa and streams huge volumes of music as hi res quality.  My CD's sit in the drawer.  You would have to spend a fortune to buy the volumes of music available in Tidal's library.  Sound quality is superior to the OPPO player.  I do like it though for watching DVD movies.

Chinese companies are starting to ship again and there's deals to be had with Topping products.  I've noticed eBay sellers are gouging rather than discounting the good stuff, so it's probably best to stay away until the virus lets up.  My local shop is offering discounts on their used/vintage equipment, with curbside or shipping service available.  Just Audio in Baltimore, MD.
