Lately I notice great stuff being sold in the FS section.

Perhaps we can list and discuss them here (as not to pollute their FS thread..)

Magnepan 1.7 $1999

MAGNEPLANAR MMG SPEAKERS OAK SIDES 4 MONTHS OLD $740

Magneplanner 3.6 in Cherry $3900

Seas Excel Millennium Tweeters and other drivers$400 ... to buy or not to buy that is my question...

MARTIN LOGAN SEQUEL II ELECTROSTATIC SPEAKERS $700 ...!

Linkwitz Orions **Seriously Reduced** $4800 !... that's like 1/3 price of AudioArtistry one. And it's Aluminum cabinet

GP, I'd almost pushed those Orions out of my mind before you reminded me with this post. Please someone buy them, save me from myself.

I keep looking at them. Crazy isn't it :P .. I think this is one of the best (if not the best) of Orion build around!

But I think the SO will not be as pleased if I have a set of speakers the price of her car :D

Well, I've bought two of the items you listed and already resold one of them. So the Bump Thread seems to be working.

:)

I must say I do find those Orions awfully enticing though. I hadn't realised how much the price had dropped.

Mine would have similar objections, but because she's taken 18months off working to finish her degree, so I've got single income and a mortgage. I've got plenty of unfinished projects here to keep me occupied, she keeps reminding me about that too!

The sad result of the death of the 'bump'. Once listed for a day or so, things now go unnoticed.

In the past, most everything I had listed would sell after a bump or two. Now, if it doesn't go in the first few days, its wait a month and relist.

God - a hybrid Shanling CD-T80 for only $375!?! Ridiculous bargain!

Damn straight.

After 2 days it becomes invisible.

The problem with bumping is that with everyone bumping as well as putting up new threads, the volume of traffic was so high that a bumped ad usually slipped off the front page within a day anyway. That then required another bump.....

But it worked. I miss it. The classifieds were more vibrant too as tbere was always activity. Now it seems very static.

No, Marc is pretty adamant on this one. Its been pushed before and shut down pretty quick. His site, his call.

if a seller drops the price, and advises so as a seperate post on his original listing, then that gives the listing a bump in effect. Doesn't it?
