Reason for selling is...


I'm always amused that sellers bother to give reasons why they're selling their gear. Obviously in the vast majority of cases, they don't like it in their system. But only a very tiny minority will say that. People are (1) moving; (2) downsizing; (3) upgrading; (4) getting a divorce; (5) undergoing surgery.

Look, just assume buyers aren't stupid. We know why you're getting rid of stuff. If you haven't lied about the condition of your gear, do us the courtesy of letting us decide independently of your reasons for selling, which all seem to be designed to reassure us that your stuff isn't bad.

Not a valid assumption.
Buyers frequently ask the question. Why not just answer it in the ad? I am usually upgrading and I say that.
I have a pristine, almost new SupermegaVoodooVibe 5000 amplifier for sale. The reason I'm selling is it sounds like cat shit in my system but I'm sure it will sound superb in yours. Bought new for $22,900.00 selling for $7500.00. Lowballers will be tracked down and severely beaten. Have a nice day.
