Add a Warranty section to Audiogon classified ads?

There has been some recent discussion regarding warranty on used goods sold through Audiogon classified listings.

At present, there is no specified warranty stipulated, and it's left to buyers and sellers to discuss warranty after the fact, unless they negotiate a warranty as part of the terms of a sale.

Should Audiogon add a Warranty section to classified listings which would provide sellers the option of selling with a warranty...with perhaps four pre-selected warranty durations of 5, 14, 30 and 90 days, or selling without a warranty?

This would seem to help clear up any dispute between buyer and seller regarding warranty on used components.

The intention of this thread was not to debate the pros and cons of warranties, but to ask whether a warranty option should be added in the Audiogon listings.

An option. For those who choose to offer one...or not.

Thus far, almost no one has offered an opinion specific to the question.

If a question it is natural to induce debate and opinions and many just dont see a need for a policy or practice on Audiogon's part, it should be left to the two parties in the transaction. Further what's the use in trying to clear up a dispute when no negative feedback can be posted in the first place?

No, if the seller wants to offer one then do so in the ad. If the buyer wants to try to negotiate one then by all means go ahead. IMO do not create a special section for one in the ad.

I'll warrant this will not be resolved here.
