Audio research VSi75 -why so many for sale?


I've been considering getting an Audio Research  Vsi 75 for some time but have hesitated. Now there are quite a few for sale ( 5 on Agon and more on ebay and other sites) at about 50% of RRP.  Is there something going on I should know about before making an offer? Is AR about to phase them out, or are they developing problems??

This question is asked frequently about different equipment. Usually there is no specific reason for a large number of a particular item to be on sale.

There are some reasons that will cause a number of an item to go on sale such as a new model of a particular item coming out and fans want to upgrade, or a new item will come out with a lot of hype and people who try it aren’t impressed. It could still be a good product, but just doesn’t live up to the hype. You can get a good deal for either of these reasons if you know that you like the item. Don’t get fooled by hype yourself, though.

Most of the time it’s just coincidence.
