If you have the financial means and don’t want to wait a year, why not pay a premium? The seller is offering an additional benefit which they have attributed an associated cost. If you don’t see the value, simply pass.
Ridiculous sale
Somebody is selling a Decware that sells at 2600 $ direct from the manufacturer for 4500 $ citing tha t you can pay that if you want to wait a year. This is a disgrace in Audiogon. Also TMR sales require you to go to their website and look for the product for information. Unfortunately the hobbiest mentality that predominated Audiogon Is being replaced by these dry, unfear actions and styles. What a shame.
