Wow that post really backfired on you, you’re probably in the wrong hobby if you get offended by a 25 buck difference.
The Music Room is Slipping
I cannot recommend doing business with them any longer. They DEEPLY lowball you when you sell them gear and then forget all about the mass profits they made on you when you are looking to buy something from them, They offer to stand behind a purchase, yes... but the reality is that it is all about max profits on used gear and lack of any sort of support or consideration going forward. They are nothing more than a pawnshop for audio gear and I am done with them.

I’ve done several deals with TMR over the years. As they’ve gotten bigger and become a seller of new equipment, their offers have gone down. But, I always think of the absolute pain it is to sell on my own. And, when I determine the value of the equipment I’m selling/trading, I still think they offer a fair deal, especially with providing free shipping to them, I’m trying to get off the “buy new gear merry go round” so I hope I won’t need their services for a long time - or any other store for that matter |
@jjss49 +1 "I second that emotion" The "used" business is a way for us hobbyists to cut our losses. If you want to make money at it, good luck knock yourself out. If you want to stop losing money at it, stop buying and selling. |

I've had several transactions with TMR over the years and it's always been a good experience. I've done consignments, trades, and purchases. I once purchased a used high dollar integrated amp that developed a buzzing sound after a couple of weeks. I contacted them and they offered to either refund, fix it, or exchange it. I chose to exchange it, and the transaction was completed quickly and without hassles. I sincerely hope they are not slipping these days because they have always been the "go to" for my audiophilia nervosa fix. |
