edited April 2009 in For Sale (FS) Classifieds
I am sadly having to sell my amp, that i bought brand new from Emotiva in December due to my wife getting a new job and needing a laptop.

The amp is honestly a 10/10. I looked and could not even find a scratch on it anywhere. It has worked flawlessly from the time i first plugged it in. It has not even moved once, took it out of the box and set it on my stand and its been there eve since.

Smoke free, Pet free house

Im asking $700 and buyer pays actual shipping.

Local pickup would probably be preferred (Jacksonville, FL) but will ship if need be. Its just the amp packaged weighs 87 pounds so im guessing shipping would be high.

Thanks

    Well, yes and no. New from Emotiva = $824 shipped. From him, assuming that $70 figure listed above is roughly correct, $770. Just sayin'.

    But if he can find a local sale or ship as cheap as Emotiva does, $100 off is a heck of a deal!
    Equipment list:
    Onkyo TX-NR3010 9.2 AVR
    Emotiva XPA-3 amp

    JKacura,

    If I wouldn't have bought some RTA-12Bs last week, I'd be all over this amp. I live about 1 Hr. North of you on St. Simons Island, GA. I have been wanting to add an XPA-5 to my system to free up a couple of other amps I have for dedicated two chanel duties in other systems. I may have the funds again for this in a few more weeks, so if you don't sell it by then, I am definitely interested.

    Steve

    Newbies:

    I believe the protocol on the FS section is to *not* come into people's FS postings and talk about other prices, comparisons to new, how you saw it for $**** less on Audiogon, etc., etc.

    If you think a deal is crappy, or "new is only $100 more", then the thing to do is move on or if your interested PM the OP and make an offer.

    Well, the poster to whom I'm assuming your refering was simply pointing out a flaw in the other posters logic ($100 off is not entirely accurate).

    Furthermore, posts like yours (and mine for that matter) are NOT ALLOWED EITHER. Technically, only potential buyers may respond, not people 'bumping for the seller's cause.'

    Just saying, it's the pot calling the kettle black. (and so is this post)

    This is thread CRAPPING at it's most basic level. If you don't like the price move on or take it to PM. This kind of crap is uncalled for, very poor form and not tolerated.
