When I sell to TMR, if I am the original owner, I can tell them how old the unit is. If I am not the original owner, I cannot be sure how old the unit is. TMR only knows the age, if the seller tells them. Age can certainly be important, especially on items that were in production for many years.
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.

@secretguy did you mean exposure? Because the sum total of all comments in this thread seems far from, uh, enthusiastic. Most positive experiences seem to date back a ways, and the whole point of this thread is that TMR is, quote, "slipping". |
My only issue with TMR is that I do not think they adhere closely to typical condition description standards as that used here or on USAM. I basically have to remember to subtract one or two levels from their rating to get to what I consider the "standard" depending on where the blemishes are and how noticeable they are. They definitely wear rose colored glasses when rating their gear. I used to find good deals to purchase at TMR in the past. Not so much any more. |
