It was 20 years ago today...


...that I joined the Audiogon community. Cheers to those that have just hit the big two oh, those that are about to, and the new members just starting the journey to connect in even better ways with the music that they love.

And my thoughts are with those that have left us and passed on. Patrick, I really miss you.

Happy Anniversary Viridian. I know that it's been over 20 years for me, and they have my date wrong too. There are also members that I miss, like Albert Porter and Mike Lavigne. Some other members are still here. I do wonder where some members are or why they dropped out; but there are times when I've considered it myself, or taken a break for a bit. I still normally check in every day though. I used to look at gear every day and check the forums; but now it's less gear and more forums.
All in all it's been a fun ride thus far.
Wow Viridian, you have been around before the Dead Sea was even sick. lol.
Congrats!!!
My start date was around 20 years ago. Just looking back on my 1st sales on agon, early 2001 when the listing fee was $2. Bring back the good old days
Thanks to all for the overwhelmingly positive response!
Foxy mentions Albert Porter. I have been in the hobby for so long that Albert and I used to trade through Audio Mart, a print publication from before the invention of the internet. Back in those days we would think nothing of sending the gear before the check had arrived. Of course PayPal was many years in the future as well.
