Used market dead?

[Norton]

Maybe the UK market is a bit different, writing off 20% tax to start with, but I generally look to pay about a third of retail s/h.  Once you are asking 50%, people start weighing up the real saving vs. new - there's the warranty to factor in to start with, plus if it's a year or two old there's likely somewhere selling new for a decent discount, or a better and cheaper new model or competitor.  As a seller, pretty much everything I've had on offer in last couple of years  has sold, but it can take a long time.  IME turntables, tonearms and anything Chord or Audionote sell quickly if reasonably priced.
