MSRP policy-


Does audiogon have any firm policy on how retail prices are listed? There is a piece now up with the retail price listed 700-800 over actual MSRP . . . and although this particular online, heavy volume seller has tons of positive feedback (and one neutral), my dealings with them (e-mail and phone but no transactions) leave me feeling that they would step on their mother’s head to move product.

seems to me that listing retail that much over reality is: a) fundamentally dishonest; and b) should be subject to reprimand by audiogon.

I think the MSRP should be stated correctly not inflated.
It may be one indicator of the integrity of the seller or simply a mistake. Accurate listing have the correct MSRP ususally noted on the audiogon blue book. A Marantz 10b had a MSRP of $ 795.00 and sellers get $ 2000.00-5,000.00 So there is no need to inflate MSRP. MSRP and asking or selling price are not 100% connected.
