Best Audio Sale Story Ever Occurred about 10 years ago.
A young European guy wanted to buy my whole system from me. Custom Conn organ tube amp, Nakamichi BX125, Rega Planar 3, Yamaha int amp used as a preamp, Celestion 100 speakers and my audio rack as I was about to get separated and was starting over in life and audio. The only thing he left me with was my Creek CAS-3140 tuner.
This young man showed up on a frigid evening dressed to the hilt with a 3 piece suit, ascot, and pocket watch and 2 suitcases in his hand that looked like machine guns.
He explained he was a violin teacher and with the cold weather, he simply could not leave his violins in the car.
After 30-45 minutes of talking, he paid me and we loaded up his car. Afterwards, he gave us all a private concert for about an hour right in the living room.
About a month later, he wrote me a hand written letter (using a wax seal to seal the letter - classy) telling me just how much he was enjoying the audio gear.
What an enjoyable experience.
