Selling here on Audiogon

I agree with all the above, but  I've sold a turntable, amp, preamp and a server and sold them quickly as I put fair prices on them with detailed descriptions. And they were popular brands which also helps. 

Although it is annoying how many dealers put their equipment up. But having been in the stereo business long ago, they have to move their trade-ins and not keep their money tied up in old equipment. And of course they use the trade-ins as an opening to sell new equipment.  

if you think the listed prices are not reasonable, do not buy them.

then, the dealers' items will expire.  then, listed again, expired, ...

this is one of the ways to make prices reasonable.

I usually look at the dealer demo ads first; I prefer buying from them to just "some guy", if possible at a reasonable price.

Might be a bit more expensive, but will also be covered under some kind of warranty, and will be much easier to deal with if there are any problems. 

Hi i think the fee on Audiogon is pretty high now. 

On small items not so much but on heavy high end gear it really gets a lot and that is a shame and probaly why some may go to other sites.

happy lisining

@thastum  Agree. I would list my speaker but $500 is too high considering they might not even sell. You can list for $5 but can't share info so it's very difficult to sell. Dealers apparently pay very little because you see the same guy from Chicago list the same stuff for years on end.
