The Music Room - Boulder Colorado


This vendor has a lot of favorable comments - but I have had a very unfavorable experience with them this Dec 2019. I have sent all my trade items & $400 via PayPal to them (per our email agreement) - all of which The Music Room has been confirmed to have rec’d. Despite my many emails they do not get back to me on the status of my trade shipment of a Rega turntable. I have called them multiple times - I cannot recommend that you deal with The Music Room, and currently I do not believe that they are legit. If they don’t make right in the next day or so I will have to file a complaint with the BBB.

Since the days of Radio Shack and Tech Hifi (I worked for both), accessories like wires have always been the big mark-up, big profit makers for electronics stores.  The only thing new is how expensive some are new and how much associated profit.  It's hard to make money selling electronics alone.  Speakers have also typically enjoyed high retail profit margins than electronics but wires have always been pretty much pure profit.  

Thing is nobody needs to buy wires without the components they connect.  Future fi all-in-1 products like KEF ls60 speakers mostly do away with the need for any separate wires or accessories which is a benefit for buyers but not so much for sellers.

You will never make top dollar selling to a reseller.

The value comes in by making the transaction relatively easy and low risk.

For top dollar reselling you have to do the work involved yourself.

 

Always good to have options with the usual pros and cons.

 

  Is there a better place to deal with that provides same level of service or better?
