Anyone else receive low offers right away ?
Jmcgrogan2, I too wish I would of held onto some of the gear I've sold in the past. At that time I always thought if I let it go I can always buy it back. It turns out that this is not so easily done anymore because for some reason more people are... 
Anyone else receive low offers right away ?
Can't justify a buyer offering hundreds less, especially if the seller is asking a reasonable price for his item. If you truly want something, just offer the full price and you have secured it for yourself. On the other side of the coin I have not...

Getting low offers are more frequent than ever. Maybe that could explain the inflated prices you see on Audiogon lately. 
Anyone else receive low offers right away ?
At least you are getting offers but it does seem a little insulting that they are hundreds less than your asking price, hopefully you are asking a fair market price, just politely ignore any ridiculas offers. Unfortunately I used to as a seller ge... 
Does Odyssey = ODL? same company?
Many would like you to believe that the ODL is a cheap imitation of the Odyssey Stratos but they are both virtually identical and originally shared almost the exact same parts, circuit boards, and topology. Anyone that is not visually impaired can... 
Big Sky Audio to upgrade Adcom GFA-535ii?
I agree what's said above, don't do it. I know a guy who had his Forte 4A (amp) professionally upgraded. When he got it back and broke it in he thought it didn't sound as good as it did before it was upgraded. So you take your chances. 
My amp has no faults
Wolf Garcia, I have the opposite problem, I can't get my amp to come back in. It is apparent that your amp and mine have serious faults.Newbee is right you will need the perfect speaker or at least ones that will go with the perfect amp. But in th... 
Is it too much to ask....
Or one can save alot of time & headaches, by running a blank ad and in the heading use the words: "Guess what I'm selling." If they they don't get it right, they should look elsewhere because I'm sure not going out of my way to type in any des... 
what would you do?
Facten, you should understand that I had no idea which dealer 52tiger was refering to in his thread until you mentioned this dealers name in your post. Further investigation out of curiosity would reveal this dealers name in another thread. Trust ... 
what would you do?
The old bait and switch or maybe the shipping department made the error of sending you the wrong amp. I would expect better from a dealer and its too bad it took over a year to discover.A few years back and reluctantly I purchased an Aragon 4004 M... 
Is it too much to ask....
Hello Elizabeth, what you just said in theory sounds about right but it won't work in these new economic conditions if you intently want to sell. Most Audiophiles need to sell what they have to help make the next purchase. Knowimg that, anything t... 
Is it too much to ask....
I don't think it is necessary to list all the specs but if you are selling an amp the least you can do is state the power rating in the ad. Even so I think most potential buyers will google the amp to see if the ad is accurate. 
Anybody with some thoughts on Hafler amps
Hafler amps are a major bargain on the used market and deliver very good sound quality for the money. I have owned the DH200 and the PRO 500, both delivering an impressive sound. The PRO 500 is essentially a DH500 but with upgraded parts. Lots of ... 
Class D amps?
Yes, look at the Wyred 4 Sound amps. 
This may sound a bit silly but why are so many
Mich4t, you are correct that a sale of a preamp can be the result of wanting the new and improved model. To this day I can't understand why the AR reference system I listened to did not move me. I asked the dealer to try a different CD with no imp...
