In business we try to practice due diligence when faced with acquisition or divestment, not always easy, and other than face value and customer referrals/feedback, for a private company or dealership there’s not much else you can do. My hunch is that the desire for the component outweighed all other factors at the time and, later, buyer’s remorse set in.
I typically like that a unit has been serviced because chances are that whatever primary mode of failure was eventually going to surface has now done so and been taken care of.
But, to the buyer’s credit, he describes several things that the seller said and did that make me think he wasn’t working with someone who was competely honest. There is always the feedback option...
Just curious: was the preamp an earlier CJ model that audibly clicks the servo when adjusting the volume?
