A flat 2% flat fee upfront may not seem much but on a high price tag item it is lot and here is the kicker, if your item doesn’t sell you are out of 2%. And pay later option is 3.5% of ‘sold’ price….on a $12K item, well you know!
When is the last time you’ve sold a 5 figure item here?
My biggest complaint is the filters put in place to prevent communication between buyers and sellers. I like to talk to sellers about a piece of gear I am interested in. I also think most buyers are like me. I understand that Audiogon doesn’t want unauthorized sales but if you pay the sale fee upfront they should allow unlimited communication between buyer buyers and sellers. They already have their money even if a sale doesn’t go through.
Yep the listing are way down, I don't even look at ad here anymore..I buy and sell on FB and USAM....just follow the money as they say..no reason to do business here with the communication restrictions and fees when it's all free elsewhere...next!
