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...

@limomangus I don't know. It's a pretty successfull business, I'd rather not disclose. I think I got the deal because I just spent over 6 grand for the Accuphase. So he felt he should take care of me. A very friendly guy.

It could be “Love”.  Sometime one gets bore or strained in a relationship and thinks that they can do better.  After some time of separation for the heart to realize the loss then the growing yearning becomes too unbearable until the pressure causes aggressive action to reacquire one’s true “Love” :)

Obviously you have a problem...the first stage on the road to recovery is admitting you have a problem. Actually everyone here has a problem...!😂

Your user name is a giveaway. Just guessing your daily driver is not a minivan? I’ll just say that my username is not limited to audiogear, and may be a good description of my garage(s) as well.

Referring to audio, if I had the opportunity to buy back gear I sold (as a consumer) at below market price, I’d do it in a heartbeat.  The OP is not "nuts".
