Interesting discussion
Definitely had horror stories with Ebay. Be wary of buying used subs, as damage by shippers, one amp destroyed by USPS(took forever to get money back, badly packed, and needed insurance copy from seller, did leave negative), another UPS, working, but front upper corners damaged, took a month, but got decent partial amount back.
Old unique sound processor did not work , burning fuses, in agreement, mostly refunded, but have product so only about 12 dollars. Believe left negative. Sometime may spend $30, local electrical audio guy, who has worked on Legacy Whispers that I have seen, maybe can at least fix the amp.
A top Cardas cable (think canuckaudiomart but US seller), seller had the cleaner in ad and did not send that, so asked. Got mad at me, talking about purity of audio. Good price on cable and cleaner cheap, so let it go.
On here, the Gon (as I call it), seller was not clear in ad about paypal fee, so complained and we split it. Little unhappy, but product was mint as stated which was nice. And still not clear to me reading this discussion about paypal fees.
But this was minor and have not had any issues with purchases here.
Interesting question, got new, but old stock upper level Optoma projector for about $500, retail 7k. Very happy with it. Bluray, of course, not 4K (BTW, was UPS ground and perfect. Marked fragile all over box.)
Clearly (think Ebay, high rating) seller making money off of this.
Or how about Cardas EM5813 earphone, now older model, was $425, now max $250 online sellers, mine $100 from Drop. No trial, that is the risk. Was very happy, but sadly one side just failed. Well under warranty, and Cardas good company, so not worried.
But again, these discounts are amazing from original retail price.
