For estate planning purposes, how do folks pre-arrange for disposition of your system if family is not interested in having it? Any suggestions as to who might handle a $200k system in the Chicago area? TIA
Actually, there's a service some entrepreneur, or Audiogon themselves could provide. The entire system could be listed, Blue-booked, and auctioned when the time comes.
Almost 2 years ago while doing our Family Trust, I had them write in the document that 1 friend/ 1 good customer, would help sell everything so my wife/Family members would not be burdened with this task. Yes these 2 individuals know my system and the costs of the gear so hopefully it will not sell for 10 cents on the $ but maybe just under 50%. The estate planning attorney had never done anything like this before but once I explained how much we were talking about thought it was a good idea.
Most of my gear will be kept by family and friends. I advised them to contact TMR about the rest. They have consistently offered me about 65% of what used gear sells for. New price irrelevant. No one in my family knows how or wants to sell used high end audio gear.
