What's going on with the used audio gear market?

 But new and with a warranty 

Used is used and you don’t know the condition 

Also Ck out the company for warranty reliability

and service 

Greed and/or hard times.

I just did that myself, in fact his price was so high I am just going to buy new instead.  20% is nothing for a 3 year old item.

I’ve left three items  on the table in the last couple of months because the sellers were asking almost new prices for 2-3 year old DAC’s or Streamers and were unwilling to come down even a few percent.

Oh well, their loss.

Sellers ridiculous asking prices are just a reminder you as the buyer, must learn the skill of negotiation, if it's something you REALLY want.

Some deals can be met with an agreed price, the others you just let them know to circle back if they can't get their asking price.

I'm seeing very high and very low...some of the high prices I attribute to new products not being available...looking at the Schiit website, some stuff ships in 1-3 days, some in 3-5 weeks...the Magnepan LRS+ will ship in about 6 months...and remember, despite all the dealers, many of us are amateur sellers...
