Wow, everything posted for sale is ''light use''??



Seems that a VERY HIGH percentage of the gear posted for sale has been lightly used with next to zero hours in a smoke free, pet free, cafeine free, oxygen free, gamma ray free home with 10 air purifiers working all at once, and operated only on Sundays between 6 and 7 am at low volume.

Notice how tubes ALWAYS have low hours on them? Man are we lucky in this hobby! Everything stays new!

It cracks me up everytime to read the postings, but it is not because it is funny.

I still have equipment that was my fathers from the 1960s. Tube phono, tube stereo, speakers etc. All in working order never repaired. Only used on weekends and special occasions.

Electronic equipment for the most part does not break or go bad. The quality is actually quite good with a very high percentage of gear. It is the owners of the equipment that are not satisfied and are always looking to replace what they have. Hence, the high turnover, which is why we have this site to ponder such things.

Until I found out about AudiogoN I never considered replacing my equipment with the frequency that I have done in the past three years. I am sure many of you were the same way before it became commonplace to buy and sell at will.
