Selling in audiogon vs amazon vs ebay?


This is just my experience to share.
I almost always have had a better experience in selling or buying audio gears (mid-high end) in Audiogon compared to Amazon or Ebay.
However, selling music had been different. I have quite a collections of LPs and I am thinning them down. Mostly classical LPs. I have sold quite a few of them in Amazon, but very few in Ebay and none in Audiogon. With equal price, do you think selling LPs in Audiogon is tougher than in Amazon or Ebay? Amazon and Ebay have much wider exposure, so it is understandable, but I wonder if it also has to do with kinds of audiences: Audiogon users are generally more for gears than music, and for music, more for audiophile grade recordings or sought after recordings than average recordings. 
Just a thought.
Your opinions are welcome.

ihcho-

I am curious as to how much the different services (Audiogon, Amazon and eBay) charge for selling ?

I buy from all vendors that you mention, plus, Audio Asylum Trader.
eBay, by far catches the largest population- caveat- there are too many amateur sellers that mess it up for more professional seller IMO.
This is a cursor for eBay.

Amazon is very easy for the buyer to buy products in which he seeks.
I have never has any problem/issue buying from Audiogon, Amazon or Audio Asylum Trader.  I am active on eBay and Audiogon since 2000/2001.
Audio Asylum 2001/2002.  Hope this helps you - Happy Listening!
