Has anyone noticed a slow down in sales?

It's the slowest time of the year for Retail....following the hottest time of the year for retail...and it has nothing to do with funding Ukraine's army to save democracy.

for me, these prices are wildly out of my budget (anything over 4-500 bucks for a component)
so when used prices come down, I welcome it

I’ve seen good buys on USAudioMart sit for months. Not a good sign. 

@coltraine

there are so many things that affect how people sell audio, and it's in so many ways unique to one hobby, I would not draw conclusions

I may be the only optimist logging in here, but I find after Black Friday and Christmas is a great time to buy because there is a bunch more on the market, after people get their new toys :-)

Value, to me, is clarified if at least two people are selling similar items for competitive prices. I prefer to think I got an okay deal, than see I got a bad deal two months later when an similar item comes up for sale two months later, if you know what I mean.

Used car prices seem to be going down, too.
