Is Audiogon worth it?

18 disputes in how many of thousands of transaction? no bad!
if you take some nice photos, rate the product properly, you will get top dollar at audiogon. (great! now i just upped my Audiogon fee's!) you can forget ebay, all of my sales accured outside NY. I could only wonder trying just to sell locally, I would be never been lucky to find a buyer for my used audio gear!

I recently sold a pair of Kimber Select speaker cables here on Audiogon, and have purchased a few items as well, and am very pleased with the people I have dealt with. The one thing that I have really noticed as opposed to other sites, is the caliber of people you deal with. EVERYONE that it has been my pleasure to do business with has been polite, helpful, and honest. I have also found that people here tend to have some experience in high-end audio which is very helpful. I am still fairly new to high-end home audio and have even e-mailed sellers with questions about the product they are selling, with no intent to buy, just product curiosity, most are more than happy to answer any questions for me. I have found that if I want to do business on "THE WORLD'S LARGEST AUCTION SITE" (no names will be mentioned, I have more hassles there!!! All I can tell you is that Audiogon and it's members have been good to me. Give it a try, I don't think you'll be disappointed!!

I retired a few years ago. I have upgraded all my audio video gear (2 main systems) mostly on Audiogon. Nowhere else could I have gotten the quality, selection and price I got here. In over 20 transactions (not all in my rating)I found everyone to be honest, with equipment for sale that was as advertised.

YOUR RIGHT!

If you perceive Audiogon as a hassle, then don't use it. We, the loyal don't need to proved anything to the uninitiated. Decide for yourself and act accordingly.

It's worked for me. But, I don't know you and your integrity, honesty and expectations. I have no guess why you would see the glass .01% empty, rather than 99.99% full.

So, mayby you know something about you which tells you that people here don't like people misrepresenting products and get really public about it.

Why don't you tell us why you read the 18 dispute threads and focused on them rather than the 250 average daily new listings or the thousands and thousands of for sales and wanted than are listed all the time.

Best wishes,

All my transactions here have been positive ones. All my interactions on the forum have been beneficial for me. Everyone that I have corresponded with from Audiogon by email have been polite, knowledgeable, and friendly. If you can't do it on this site, then you may as well hang it up. If you have concerns about members who have diputes ongoing, then deal with the others who have good feedback.
