What's up with ads for $70,000 speakers selling

To add to Peter"s line (PBNaudio) A fool and his money are soon parted.
By the time someone has a halfway or better decent system the fool is gone but the quest continues.

Unfortunately its at the point now that I won't deal with anyone unless they have considerable feedback. Hope audiogon or the community can find a viable solution to this growing problem. Good Luck

I bought those Maxx 2's for $6500.00 and wondered why the crates were so light!

I've also seen several ads here for newer McIntosh items selling for 1/4 of their original price, all sellers have 0 feedback, and all have Asian names, even tho based here in the US. As said before, if it's too good to be true,......buyer beware.
I, too, have had my responses blocked lately, all atributable to the new Audiogon.

Just more scams from the evil minds of the "Fraudiopiles". It seems the buying and selling audio gear has now become a walk through a minefield.
