About 8 years ago,I posted on rec. audio.tubes-to the same effect-namely that supporting ebay is driving up prices of vintage equipment.I suggested "withstanding the temptation" to buy and sell on ebay.
I received such vehement response-a great deal of it from sellers,that I received my first initiation into the unique experience of "making waves" on the net.
My personality is not such that I can weather responses coming from unpleasant people that easily.
So,I learnt a lesson.While I have bought quite a few things on ebay across the years-things that are not to be found in my part of the world-I always prefer to sell things on Audiogon.
Ebay is a fact of life,additionally,I have seen ONE glowing mention of an obscure product by an anonymous person cause prices to double on ebay within days.
