What is going on? No-one buys good stuff priced right.


There are Lamm hybrid monos, Rowland 8T, YBA Passion Integre and Lavardin integrateds, Dynaudio Contour and Confidence speakers,and that's only what I took a look at.
Too many choices, too much hesitation, no funds, not in the mood, summer time ?

It's been a buyers market for over a year now. Probably a variety of reasons, declining pool of audiophiles, declining incomes, upcoming elections causing lack of consumer confidence.

Who knows? All I know is it's a great time to be a buyer, but a terrible time to be a seller. Yet manufacturers continue to raise their prices.....hmmmm.
@inna , yes, traditionally summer is the slower season, as many spend their disposable income on other ventures, vacations, boats, etc.

However, last winter was the slowest winter I recall seeing on the used market for sellers in over two decades, even pre-dating Audiogon.
I could tack the paypal fee on the sale price initially, but that doesn't make sense to me, because once you list a price, that is the price.


99.9% of the time, the list price is NOT the price.
