My wife has a selling space at a local antique and collectible store and I use a section for selling some old audio pieces, mainly small speakers.
I had a Sherwood receiver playing music with a Kenwood CD player every day and people ask if they can buy the Sherwood and I have declined until yesterday.
A customer became very excited to find a "vintage" TT system but knew absolutely nothing about any of it and was using an old record player that was damaging his records.
I have to say it was very enjoyable to see him get so excited about this and so I decided to sell him the
Sherwood receiver, Onkyo turntable and Realistic MC 1000 speakers.
$170 for all and we now have a new, very excited vintage audio enthusiast out there playing records and he will also be streaming by using the auxiliary inputs on the receiver.
Wow, he was very happy and excited to get home and set it up.
I know that there are people here that also give pieces away and I think that's a great thing to do if you can afford to do that.
I have also sold several sets of speakers to younger people who are also really enjoying vintage audio and thats also nice to see.
Now I will be putting a Quadraflex receiver with Bang & Olufsen Beovox S 35's into the space.
I found out that there is actually a wanted list for vintage receivers in the store and they do sell quickly.
Just thought that I would share.
Have a great day!
Perhaps others can share what they have sold.
