Experiences Selling Stuff On Audiogon?


I know Ebay is terrible, but how has your experience selling gear on Audiogon been? I have some stuff that's too high-end for the market I live in, and so I gotta cast the net wider. Not looking forward to the potential hassle.

No problems with Audiogon per se, but plenty of problems with shipping companies damaging items.

I concur it’s better than ebay. Ebay uses funky algorithms that "take dive" deep into audits and if you are unlucky (very most likely could be your personal information that matches with past problems that could occur to someone else), you will get problems from digital bugs that will REALLY BITE HARD your account to the point of eating it to the bare bones. My 33 years in IT clearly see that especially with new Ebay accounts. New accounts always get BASHED for reason or no reason by those audit algorithms and are very hard to develop to the stable performance even before you get any feedback.

Way back in the day audiogon was the best place to sell. Honest hobbyists, great deals it was more like a library of audio products you could buy try and resell without much loss. Now all have to get a cut of your sales $$ scammers abound, and many of the good folks left while the rest stayed. I don’t sell here anymore.
