    I now have a better feel for what feedback I might receive when I sell an actual audio/video component now:biggrin:

    Yeah right, the feedback will be the same :rolleyes:. Selling a used mattress will get you a lot different responses than selling actual A/V equipment.

    Go on a car forum and try selling a swing set.

    "Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it.

    Let's put this thread to bed.

    Selling a used mattress is illegal in most states, though rarely enforced.

    I remember my church wasn't allowed to sell them at our rummage sales. I think we gave one away once.

    I'll admit to sleeping on a used mattress, but it was from a family friends and I didn't pay for it.

    I'm married... I purchased my bed after I got married. I paid for it myself. I earned the funds used to purchase the bed. and it's not even this bed. this bed doesn't exist. read old comments. Why would Mom have anything to do with or care that I was selling my bed anyway? nothing?

    In this case, it might be better to go with an egg shell white paint. Should work as I believe this mattress has probably already been primed.
