Jon1553552729 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 A little overoptimistic on the price? http://www.trademe.co.nz/Electronics-photography/Home-audio/Turntables/auction-334087189.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Dom Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 There's no doubting there's that much coin invested in it - but as a resale prospect, I'd have to agree that it's a tough call. Perhaps the person just about to buy this identical set-up new would benefit the most. It seems very sad (to me, at least) that after upgrading this t/t to such a high standard that they're letting it go. DD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Ono Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 I note at 9 k it still has not reached reserve.I have no doubt that the seller paid a large amount for initial purchases but whether this transforms to this amount in the used market remains to be seen.

Guest Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 The seller has got to be joking... A Thanks, any thoughts on the pricing?

King Size1553552683 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Yes fettling and plinthing is very important Back on topic, well sort of anyway. There is a seller on trademe who has been trying for pretty much the entire year to sell a naim Hi-Line for $1,200. The Hi-Line is a fragile cable and I certainly woudn't buy one other than from a dealer (with a warranty) which would cost me $1,375 even before asking for a discount. I see someone questioned his price recently and he said it was fair and would eventually sell :eek: Same seller also has a Naim CDS1, naim speaker plugs and NACA5 for sale on trademe. Needless to say they haven't sold either.... SORRY : Should clarify that it isn't the same seller as the abovementioned Linn. Was just commenting on another seller who appears very optimistic with is pricing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
