Ebay and AudiogoN, listings and the economic crisis.


It is not AudiogoN, it is the Sellers listings.  There are now what most would consider very mainstream, not high end at all listings.  With the virus lockdown listings on both sites, ebay and AudiogoN  have increased, and on ebay increased greatly.  Economic hard times... sell off disposible things.  A good time to buy a sports car or a Summer home, as those are being disposed of, simply expendables.

It would seem that some reply to threads wanting to show their intelligence and they are successful.
Do you think they were being 'sarcastic'? You know 'stable geniuses' do that every day.🙄

The demand is still there. I sold four different items this past week alone, no problem. And relatively expensive stuff (for cables that is).

I did my part too. Whatever I sold was replaced pronto

Besides audio gear, one of my passions was sports cars.  From driving at Road America and others to owning many sports car names you would recognize.
When I was racing there was joke that said, "what's the difference between owning a Ferrari and dating a pretty woman" . ..."in the long run the Ferrari is cheaper and more reliable"

While I agree there are some “ fire sales” starting up for the most part I see boredom and spare time.
over the last 3 weeks I have sold quite a few thousand dollars worth of surplus gear, most fairly quickly and nearly all at my asking price or very close.

With people confined to the house there is a lot of internet surfing and buying right now.
People with money will buy no matter what.
