Never Used -- in Sealed Box


Who are the people who keep buying audio equipment, then offering it for sale without even opening the box? There seem to be regular listings for all levels of equipment which have never even been auditioned by their owners. Do these same people ever buy, say, bridges, or Florida beach property? Or do they believe that perhaps we are interested in buying some?

I usually start to open my stuff while it is still in the UPS guys' hands.I don't know who those guys are;other than maybe "really,really" excellent at re boxing??
Just another of life's perplexing questions: Like if the natives built this monster of a fort;40 ft high,why did they make the doors 40 ft high? to keep King Kong OUT??
There seems to be several variations of this that all are perplexing - "2 yrs old, been in a box for the last 23 mos.", or "one year old - less than 20 hours of use". Who buys a super nice piece of electronics and then never uses it? The only recurring pattern that does make a bit of sense are the ones where somebody buys something, the significant other gets angry, so they sell it almost immediately.
