new gear vs used gear

another thread got me thinking about this,how much of your current rig was bought new & how much of it was bought here on audiogon or ebay.

out of the 14 seperate pcs of gear im currently running 12 were bought on audiogon & 2 were bought at a dealer.

this isnt a dealer bashing thread i was just curious as to the numbers & why you choose to buy used or new.

All of my cables are new. My CDP was a store demo, so where does that fit in?
My TT was a factory upgrade, so it is new/used, my pre-amp was bought used and sent back to Klyne to be completely upgraded to the latest model so it is new/used. The rest is used.
Applying Uppermidfi's math then mine is:
50% used
50% new/used
50% used
and the rest is somewhere in between. I hope someone is doing the math on this. Maybe one of the underworked physicists can do all the calculations.
