This may have spent time in a damp environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spinnergeoff Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 (edited) The word "rare" is over-used at ebay and usually wrongly, but seems to attract no approbrium or censure. The word "like", on the other hand, does, despite being used accurately. But sometimes we see rare used fairly, as in these examples of Marantz power amps that I have to say are quite unfamiliar to me, even though the Esotec series is.

I just always found the Marquis to be dry,technical and utterly uninvolving. The CP and Princess had a more musical and approachable sound that "invited you in to listen ": 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not the real price, eBay sellers put over inflated prices on items that ARE NOT CURRENTLY IN STOCK instead of ending the listing and having to re-list (more fees) Knowing people won't purchase them at said high price, once the item is in stock the seller reduces the price. Is common practice for eBay Business sellers when an item is out of stock and is within eBay policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
