"You cannot handle the truth"


Should anybody be weary about any equipment (mostly new) that are barely used, no way near the usual break-in period, before putting it on sale?

Like, why would anybody used it for, say, 70 hours or so, then decided to sell?  It's always a red flag to me, as if it's some kind of lemon, some forgotten freight being fall off from a truck, or the equipment sounds woeful....   I would not think any legit dealer would be that casual neither.

Not to upset anybody.... would love to hear some reasonable explanations such that I don't make the wrong assumption...

1.5 hours a week.  I posted about this on another thread ( https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/what-a-sad-world-we-now-live-in/post?postid=1752367#1752367 ).

Of course, that is for those of us that work and have lives outside of audio.  I think I may edge a little higher than that, but not much.  And I enjoy this hobby as much as anybody.
Now that is actually sitting down to listen without distractions.  I may have the radio on in my car, or listen to my local classical station (WILL Urbana IL, Tivoli Model 1) when I'm making pizza dough, or even catch a short tune on the elevator at the doctor's office, but I don't count those sessions.  That's just background music.

"And don't forget, you can only sell one!"
You can sell two, if you can find "almost new", "barely used", "not even broken-in" dialysis machine on some enthusiast site.
"Would you please elaborate a little more? 70 hours …"
I bought a little portable player a few months ago. I use it more often than I expected, novelty of the new I guess, and it is at 170 hours or so. I was surprised when I checked it, I thought it would be in many hundreds.
"...but I don’t count those sessions. That’s just background music."
I count even those moments. My system is used for that 95% of the time. Plays music whenever I remember to turn it on, but I have no real interest in sitting in front of it for extended periods of time. There is only 24 hours in the day and they are sold out.

That may be how I came up with my evaluation of the systems strategy, It has to sound pleasant from another room.
