Would you pay to audition speakers


A dealer told me that he will let people audition 1 pair of speakers for free. If you want to hear multiply speakers
he charges 500.00. If you buy a pair of speakers he will credit you back the 500.00. He says he does this so people don't waste his time. He says If someone is serious about purchasing speakers they won't have a problem with the 500.00 deposit. I'm Interested in knowing how the Audiogon community feels about this.

Give me a break....this is absolutely absurd to think the dealer is there to be used given what has happened in high end audio in the past 10 years.......most people on this site USE dealers to demo equipment, then come here to buy it used or from someone selling new at used prices to save some cash when they had zero intentions on buying new....hence wasting the dealers time and effectively shutting down the vast majority of the brick and mortars throughout the USA.

Then those same people have the balls to moan and complain when there are no dealers in their area to demo equipment. You CAN'T have your cake and eat it too......you people have done it to yourselves.
