Is it too much to ask....

For me having specs in the ad is not important as I tend to know what I’m looking for and have done my homework in advance….but I am an audio hobbyist, therefore, I have a broader knowledge then a casual A’gon passerby.

I’m more interested in what cannot be found on manufactures websites, like the condition of the amplifier, any modifications/repair history, does the owner have original packing for safe shipping, is the warrantee transferable, does the owner have experience in shipping large heavy items, etc. Does he provide high resolution pictures? For me, these are important facts.

Good ad copy should address the needs of your audience. Too much copy or not the right info will turn off the audience.

Audiogon has many types of consumers, therefore, there is NO perfect one size fits all ad format and copy. There is no right or wrong….it’s just preference.
