Audiophiles must be careful with their remotes, vs. items on ebay.

Yes, anyone can loose a remote especially when moving.  That said, I have never lost a remote and neither have any of my friends or relatives.  The thought is not AudiogoN, but the number of items missing remotes on ebay can make a person wonder about that unit's history and ownership. 

Kind of like a camera, car, computer, or other consumer item that are missing something....I can't say I have noticed much of that, but ebay audio components with missing remotes is fairly common.  I guess that should not be a concern, as I have lost a few ladies in my past.....I could swear they were just here a little while ago?

A SL-600, or An SL-600?

(I am from the title of another thread)

By the way, R129 SL 600 (no hyphen) is still a candy.

Could be wrong but I suspect quite a few sellers intentionally withhold the remote and sell it separately at a later time.

When my kids were little remotes used to disappear frequently. They were eventually found and sometimes in most unlikely places. Other things disappeared permanently -

Yes,  comments on spelling, word usage and the like are critical to the success of AudiogoN. It is not really about sound or components, is is all about finding anyone making an error of any type and pointing it out.  Kind of like the "hall monitor" in grade school. 

"hall monitoris an extension of it's true meaning. someone who polices the halls and rats on fellow peers for petty power, self esteem and approval from elders. someone who gets off or generally thinks they are in charge by randomly busting you. self appointed judges of anything."
