There has to be a better way to run a simple sale with a little protection? I lost a purchase early this year due to the a-gon silly no contact rules, the deal was made, everything was good to go but there was no way to contact the seller to arrange for pickup. Both he and I tried but we were not able to make contact except through a-gon and phone numbers, street addresses and email addresses were all filtered out. Does a-gon expect everything to be shipped, it sure seemed like it?
Audiogon seller's question
It has been a long time since I've sold something on Agon. I still buy quite often here, but usually sell on US Audiomart. That said, I have recently listed a relatively expensive pair of speakers and just received an offer through Agon. The buyer just joined and of course has no feedback. So it will for sure have to be Paypal, but no F&F. What is Audiogons role in protecting either the seller or the buyer these days? I would like to have a phone conversation for such a transaction, but I know that's not going to be allowed.
