Questions about using audiogon to sell 1st time


I’ve read over all material I could find and looked up forums on the matter etc, but thought I’d also ask here just to get more info and clarification. Is PayPal required? I honestly have never used PayPal when I sell my expensive stuff every 4-5 years for upgrades.....but all I could find is yes it’s mandatory....which is awful as absolutely 0 seller protection and buyers use it as a rental service. 2nd how long does an ad last since were paying to place it on site I would assume a few months, but idk. Lastly, is worth selling something on audiogon if it’s only 2200$ or so or would u only sell the higher priced items here bc of the audio community? Sorry for all the questions but I wanted to acquire more info and clarification on all these matters before I place an ad, I’ve had absolutely 0 luck elsewhere which is strange as b&w d3 series maintains its value...which is why I’m looking at audiogon as my last alternative.

thsnks and I hope I can get the info I need, will be placing an ad on audiogon most likely tomorrow once i get some more info.

I have done over 130 transactions here and every one with PayPal and never had a problem. You are way off base regarding PayPal and frankly most of us here wouldn’t purchase items if PayPal was not used. You are not only a misinformed individual, but someone I would never purchase from (no feedback and no PayPal). You don’t trust PayPal yet you want would be buyers to trust you? Not going to happen.
So if I differ in opinion I get blasted by people like you interesting, also buyer feeeback would require me to sell things which I rarely do..guess I’m out of luck then.
Also I’m not misinformed kid, a buyer can return a item months after the return for no reason. If done correctly item is returned if not they can keep the item and money.

PayPal has protection for the buyer and seller these days, it’s not like the old days.  I’ve been a top seller and buyer for five years and never had a problem. There appears to be a fair amount of paranoia about PayPal.
