Man I hear that !!! I think it’s just another money GRAB
Selling on Audiogon
It appears that it has become more difficult for individuals to sell equipment on Audiogon. com. Has anyone else had that experience. PayPal requires you to set up a business and the other available option also appears difficult. Am I alone in such an experience? Any other alternative that can be suggested?

(1) OTHER DECENT SELL OPTIONS TO AUDIOGON ( both free ) CANUCKAUDIOMART https://www.canuckaudiomart.com USAUDIOMART. https://www.usaudiomart.com (2) Regardless, some arguable new market issues for ‘Goner sellers to navelgaze are two-fold: - (i) this hobby has very fluid prices for sellers trending on a downward slope that is a parallel proxy for a declining discretionary luxury goods market everywhere; - (ii) consequently a past practice reliance on published historical prices as the best-available yardstick for current asking prices is now arguably disconnected between buyers and sellers. (A) Some Sellers are either slow off the mark or just plain stubbornly resistant to accept and embrace lower offer prices as their option if they want to move the gear quickly. (B) a growing cohort of prospective buyers are contemporaneously floating big haircut offers on many listings. A plethora of threads oft-repeated on many audio forums reflect this growing trend which Sellers frequently diametrically view as lowballers tossing around nickels like they are manhole covers. my takeway ... I agree with the OP ....it’s a slow market out there at a minimum, so IMO, choose your terms wisely as a prospective seller if you want to actually sell it in reasonable time. Listing it is easy, actually selling it now is not always an easy task in lockstep. |
