OCD mickey website and negativity.

I see videos from this individual frequently he's got a show every night almost on YouTube which is live. It's interesting.

I'm not familiar with the brands on his website and he doesn't seem to be happy about lots of stuff. He visits stores and complains about how terrible their equipment is and that no one knows what they're doing without really explaining him himself.

I've learned many things from him but I don't know why his gear that he represents seems lacklustre, I'm not gonna mention it here but maybe I'm wrong. There are many outstanding so-called higher end audio gear that's out there and he doesn't seem to carry any of it.

You’ll definitely want to watch the recent one where he "baits" people on this forum, calling them out by their handle, and claiming that they post so often on the forum that they have no life, are liars, or are professional shills for the big Audio Industry.

That’s just creepy. Thanks for pointing it out, @hilde45.

How hard is it for dealers to find manufacturers who will allow them to sell their product ?

If I wanted to become a dealer and start selling audio gear can I just call manufacturers and say hey can I sell your gear to a bunch of customers I have?

And then do I have to whine and dine these manufacturers to convince them how good it would be to do business with me? And then do I have to commit to spending a lot of money to buy the products at wholesale and then they allow me to start selling their products?

This seems pretty easy.

So these videos that I watch are a dance between the dealer and the manufacturer. If I do a good job recommending their product and showcasing it can I then begin to sell their product?

So many currents of activity going on. And then you have to decide whether what you’re hearing is the truth or just people finding ways to promote and sell products.
