sbank,
good point you should also void purchasing from everyone who wants and aims to make profit. that includes dealers that sell brand new products
i also buy strong brands that i put an amount of often complete overhaul restoration effort to make profit mostly on mint cosmetic and operational condition finished product. in average i spend $50...150 on good quality electronic parts from mouser manufactured in USA or Japan to restore mostly solid state electronics mostly in sub- $1000 range.
avoiding @czarivey here is no brainer. i simply don't trust audiogon when it comes to selling my products. last thing i want to do is selling via provider that can potentially screw me over and Audiogon isn't the first or last. my aim is cash and i prefer to sell out of retail store locally with personal limited 3 months warranty.
