RE: There's some peculiar things about USAM

Posted by AbeCollins on February 27, 2023 at 09:57:55:
The PS Audio M700 mono-amps I saw on USAM had various listing dates and some are reasonably priced. I checked again today and they show up as November 2, January 8, and February 23 so it doesn't appear that there's any shenanigans going on in this case. There's one such pair still up on Audiogon and it's been there for a very long time but that's because the seller's asking price is almost MSRP!
I saw those Schiit amps too! Who in their right mind would spend that kind of money on used amps when for a fraction more one can buy brand new with full factory warranty. That's a perfect example of some used equipment pricing being ridiculous [but in this case I think the sellers are just clueless or fishing for that clueless buyer].
