Used market dead?

So, I’m trying to sell gear. Lots of sellers, no buyers. Checking Superphonica things also look bleak, with featured sellers with only a few sales each (one of them has 0 sales). @ted_b has a preamp up there that hasn’t moved. On Audiogon, the audiomarts, etc, mostly you see heaps of old crap and/or not we’ll-known brands.

 

So what’s going on? If it’s not a famous brand name it just won’t sell? Is it just dead overall?

 

 Perhaps most of the prospective buyers have spent all their money on new Class D amplifiers ?

More likely on massive over priced A.

Until Altronics (Au)  ran out of stock recently, anybody who didn't need to listen to music at ear bleeding levels, had a decent pair of 8 ohm speakers,  and knew which end of a soldering iron was which, could have constructed the Class A amplifier whose EXTREMELY low distortion measurements to 20KHZ were shown in the other thread, for <Au$1,000.

It was a complete kit with pre-punched and labelled metal work too.
