Preowned Wilson Audio Chicago Dealer


So, what's with the Chicago used gear dealer who constantly advertises tons of used Wilson, (the same models for over a year or more) yet anyone who calls him to buy a pair get's totally discouraged by him on Wilson?

Is this just the old bait and switch with him having none of them in stock? Right now he must have 12 ads of the 20 on Audiogon- yet when called about actually buying a pair he doesn't even attempt to subtly switch you to something else. He makes you feel like an idiot for considering buying Wilson and will "only sell you a pair of you insis"t and then tells you "but I know I"ll only be buying them back from you".

I don’t know person. But I do know Wilson speakers and agree , they are junk not worth the money even used one , that’s why there is so many for sale. Happy new year to everyone 

@decathlon1991,

 

The troll is you with your idiotic blanket statement. Have you actually dealt with him?

hes a good guy. decent prices. i dont like that he takes lousy pictures... but my main gripe is that he advertises things HE DOES NOT  have in stock. 
ive bought & sold with him. hes just a different cat.

Yes, I have Mr. Thin skinned. I looked at his McIntosh MC275 for a second too. They have been there for well over a year. My uncle even went to Chicago to inquire about purchasing an amplifier for me and even with a well heads up timeline, he still couldn’t get in. I ordered my Mc2301 from Audio Excellence in Canada. But here is the fun part since you asked so candidly, lol. He doesn’t bother me or sway me one bit. I’m my own individual and can make up my own mind. Some folks are leaders and some are followers. The key is knowing who you really are and what you are capable. I’ve been to some of the best Hi End stores all over the world. I’m fortunate but not everyone has that ability. If a store or a person can’t get it done especially if it is a simple process, I don’t wine about it, I keep it moving. I don’t expect you to understand. One more thing. If you want to sound smart, try not to use other folks words, it makes you sound desperate. 

Also if you have ever been to New Orleans and visited Wilson Audio the store, you will know Doug the original owner is the same way if not worse Except he will not pretend to have a product
