In Reply to: RE: Why are PAD cables used a tough sell? posted by sk on December 15, 2014 at 14:06:20
Though when looking around, it seems like many other cable companies are in the same dire straits when it comes to selling used. I think the problem is that too many of these companies sell new products at significant discounts, like 50% of list. So when buying used, I would expect to pay around 25-30% of list. People still want discounts for buying used. Too many sellers think that they can buy a new cable for 505 of list and turn around and sell it for 50% of list, but buyers are starting to figure out this scam. That's myu $0.02 anyway.

I had not noticed this trend.
Well I've noticed that the PAD Praesto series has had trouble moving at 60-70% off list prices. I also just picked up some High Fidelity cables at over 70% off list, and I just saw some Stealth Audio cables sell for over 80% off list. It seems to me that 60-70% off list just isn't enough to move used cables anymore. Perhaps it is the season, or perhaps it is because everyone is starting to catch on to the fact that folks only pay 50% for cables brand new. I can't say for sure, but they seem to be demanding larger discounts on used cables these days.
Very interesting discounts. Seems like a great time to purchase cables.
