New vs uses in your current setup


Curious the ratio new to used/demo in your current system comprised of. 
I’m equally split on a “per box” basis although I tend to look for used cables almost exclusively.

I'm in a Trigger's Broom (Ship of Theseus Paradox) situation, if you bought it new in 1986 and refurbed it three times can it still be considered original/new?

If so I'm at a new/demo/used ratio of 40/20/40.

 

 

I do 99 % used open box.i like to talk directly with who I buy from . Sometimes I pick it up in person. That has been the most fun.meeting interesting people. Sometimes I get stuff that needs to be recapped and gone through.i take that into consideration. Price wise. Enjoy the hunt.

My streamer and my cartridge are new because they have the shortest shelf life. My other components are also new, but I have no good reason for that now that I think about it. 

Only two pieces were bought new for me my speakers and my power distributor everything else was used or demo.
