Sold a component and bought it back, am I nuts?


I sold my brand new naim 5si integrated about a month ago, by sold, I mean I traded it in. I was looking on website of company I traded it into, and noticed in used section. I inquired about it and was told it was indeed the Amp I had traded. They had to open box up to check it out before resale, despite it being new. Anyhow, they had it listed at a greatly reduced rice. Me, knowing it was my former amp, I scooped it back up...am I a genius? Lol...

@asctim Thanks for confirming I’m not nuts, bananas yes! Hahaha...yea, I could not pass buying it back once I saw it listed as used (but not really used). I think the 5si may go well with my JBL 4309’s, whenever I get around to setting them up. I have no clue as to why he let it go for so cheap, and I honestly don't care! 😁

A self-proclaimed genius?  That's how it usually works.  Getting a component back that you should not have sold in the first place, is truly good luck, though.

Reminds me, I need to call the guy who I sold my CJ MF2550SE...

@liamowen we all make mistakes, or have a lapse in judgement. The "genius" thing you are hung up on was tongue in cheek...jeesh...I am far from being a true genius, that I'll tell ya...

Sorry, man, the genius thing has already been flushed from my consciousness.  You can feel free to use it as long as you would like, though.
