    Two weeks off for shitting up a decent for sale thread from an established member with your garbage. The price had already dropped to $900 which is 72% of the original MSRP making it a deal. Your self-absorbed banter can stay in a profile post next time.

    I dont even disagree honestly, i typically wont pay more than 75% of new for a used product. I wont lie though, I was just hoping to get back what i paid for it and that seemed to be what they were going for, but i feel like I dropped the price relatively fast, i do want to sell the damn thing.

    hahaha come on Ravi, I think that might be a little harsh, he wasn't even mean about it, though maybe he could have done it somewhere else. I would vote to bring @Hekeli back early.

    The market determines value and nothing more.

    By that standard, this is a steal.

    Absolutely. If i didn't pre-order an Aeolus I'd snatch this up & sell my D/S.

    I've gotten a lot of complaints from other admins and mods when I wasn't pretending to be a butthead for a few months there. I'm shortening the ban to 1 day for you, though.

    Had a think on this, on the one hand I kinda agree the price is market average so nothing to write home about, on the other hand I would rather buy from a friend here where the chances of gear having hidden/undisclosed issues or generally having a bad experience is less than other places. So I see the endorsements as a reassurance of people who know the user or have bought from him before and things went smoothly.

    I think that Schiit has exceptional resale value. Items are not heavily discounted like other brands and tend to be bought quick.

    Market has dictated this - I don't personally agree with it but nothing to do about it.

    I agree. I just sold a Gungnir Multibit that I purchased over 1.5 years ago used, and sold it for the same price. Which was a “good” price at the time but nothing exceptional.

    No doubt it will sell, but SBAF is a pretty limited market as well if you want top dollar quickly. Great to start here first, but interest doesn’t seem to be there at the moment, so if you want to make your money back more quickly, you may want to post on other sites (if you haven’t already.). Agon, HF, or USAM perhaps.

    How much to ship this to Asia and would it be safe or have adverse affect on the sound if I had to use a power transformer?

    I'm the market for a balanced dac.
