The "new" Audiogon

It really does suck, you can't locally search for things like floorstanding speakers. This is the "netflix" of marketing rollout blunders for hi-fi.

The other problem is they have paying customers with current ad's and the website is 'effd up. I bet they will me making some partial refunds to a lot of angry customers, or at the very least extending the listing period for free.
H9"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. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul! -

I don't even worry or think about the feedback system it's not that hard to figure out if someone is a flake around here hell I don't even worry about the Ignore list I just have a small list in my head of people I know I would never buy from or sell to. -
LOL, "Application off line for maintenance" Sounds like all yer bitchin' got someones attentionI refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
"I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion."
My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

I hate Audiogon now. Even my favorite sellers seem to be no longer posting new stuff.
-
I wonder if they'll have the good sense to admit they F'ed up and revert to the old, tried and true format. New Coke, anyone?
-
I think they'll get it under control eventually. Some of the new search tweaks are kinda nice . . . like the ability to limit what you see to certain monetary value.

Not being able to email sellers directly, losing the ability to check area codes, and now seeing 100% positive feedback for people with zero sales? If anyone has other sites that I can start using, that would be appreciated.

I used to check them every day, several times, for certain gear. I don't ever bother much now :frown:Jeff

I'm with you blueboxer.I always depended on the feedback and liked looking around the area by zip for stuff.You can enter zip codes in the search but i have found it is not very helpful as i have seen items close that do not show up when i search the zip.Main Rig-Realistic AM/FM Record player 8 track boasting 4 WPC

What an amazing cluster f?€k! I know if I did that to my company, I'd already be looking for a new job. There are a few refinements which are improvements, and I really don't mind the new look, as the old one was quite antiquated. But, they should never have lost any of the functionality. I'm thinking about asking for my blue book subscription money back. -

Hopefully whoever owns or runs audiogon takes note of this.

Sal, that a sold item stayed was one of the great things about Audiogon. You could see what the asking price was and use that for comparsion....like a free resource. What Audiogon is trying to do now is force you to subscribe to their Bluebook feature, which is actually pretty useless.
Days left....not sure what help that is. Searching by price really limits what you see....much better to see everything, it gives one a better perspective.Political Correctness'.........defined

I wanted to look at LPs and SACDs, and couldn't find them.
I searched for MFSL and got a $15,000 cartridge as an only listing. I then went down the side bar and clicked on music and all the MFSL stuff came up. They have some problems to work out!
