You can see why audio outlets in Australia "cringe" at the words "Can you offer me a trade-in?" Looking at some of the asking prices on top level gear in the StereoNET Classifieds......wonder what some of them will move for? The eventual Seller's fee would make me blink.

If you are referring to SNA Seller fees, they are capped at $250.00, which as far as I'm concerned is well worth it, you get a better deal the higher the item is valued.

And keep in mind that Seller's Fees work on a sliding scale too. The average Seller's Fees is currently hovering between $5 and $10.
Considering the amount of work that goes into each ad from an admin perspective, and more often subsequent follow ups, one often questions my hourly rate. But we're heading off topic now.

Wondering if the topic has run out of air.........end it please!! Marc's initial reactions to what I saw as a low ball offer were right on the money. My selling price worked out to be about 62% of what I originally paid but I had to go through all the moves to get there.

Nah. It is deeply cathartic to vent about low ball offers🙃
