Are your used items selling?


My prices might need adjusting -but my stuff seems like it is dying a slow death.Anyone else experiencing this? I believe the economy is taking it's toll also.

Just yesterday, I sold my Berning MicroZOTL for 80% of its retail value. That seemed to hold it's value pretty well. It sold within 30 minutes of placing the ad. For full asking price.

And just for the record, I eat lots of meat every day, wear leather and fur on my coats, use old growth exotic hardwoods for my speaker cabinets and amp panels, and drive a gas-guzzling 12 cylinder Jaguar.

Not politically correct? You got that right.

Oh, and I own and use alot of nasty black semi-automatic guns, too. With big, high-capacity magazines, and pistol grips, and flash hiders, and folding stocks. I'm sure Charles Schumer doesnt like me. And I also am a certified firearms instructor.

I burn wood in a fireplace for heat. I don't recycle. I don't donate to the Save the Whales fund, or Greenpeace. I think feminism is acting like a woman. I think the Sierra Club is a subversive organization. I am opposed to Social Security and other Marxist activities by the Federal Gov't. I think the UN should get the H*LL out of this country, and we should get the H*LL out of the UN. I think "gun control" means using two hands.

Okay, I'm sure everyone gets the picture. Next topic.
Thank you, Unsound. That is all I could ask of anyone. And I respect your opinions, and value them too.
Zaikesman, you crack me up! Maybe we can get together and head up to Hudson's Bay for a seal roundup this winter!

Ohlala, I only talk about the stuff that I want to keep, on the posts I place. Particularly the Teres, I wouldn't part with that for any reason. And the Microzotl was only sold to get the next Berning amp. It really is all I said it was. It's sound quality is what led me to want the top of the line Berning. If I didn't get upgrade fever, I could have been permanently happy with the Microzotl. And the Lowthers are staying right where they are. If somebody wants them, they can make their own. I actually sell very little on this site, apart from LP's, and I buy much more than I sell.
It may have had a bearing on it, but I think that many others are aware of the Berning quality, without my mentioning it. Also, the Berning ZH270 normally sells used for about $3600-$3800, which is also about 80% of it's $4500 retail price, so this is fairly consistent throughout the Berning line. It is interesting that my unit sold so easily, but I really don't know if my posting was a factor. Most Berning stuff sells quickly, from what I have seen. If my compliments of it helped it to sell quickly, then I'm glad I complimented it! But I think that would be over-estimating my influence level on buyers. A Microzotl is an unusual unit that needs a specific application, and the buyer would be aware of those specifics, and look for the best unit for the job/price. Which the Berning happens to be.
