    When you consider the high demand and 2 to 3 month waiting period. Its a decent deal for the "I want it now" price. And people put too much emphasis on the warranty for ZMF products. Zach stands by his products and does not overcharge for repairs on second hand units.

    That makes sense but..

    As a SBAF courtesy (and to keep this thread clean and helpful), let’s not post anything higher than 70% of new or equivalent prices.


    EDIT: yeah, what I said was too naive. Decisions are always subjective and should be up to buyers, rather than my arbitrary thresholds.

    That's a overly simplistic rule. Some gear you just don't find for that (dna, ec, etc). Let's keep this kosher guys. No harm in posting a deal even if it isn't a deal to all who lay eyes on it. Carry on.

    Buying used Aeolus is more in line with cutting the wait line and getting it in a day or so.
    I still feel some decent $ discount would be nice to help fellow members.

    I don't usually post anything unless I think the price is a great deal. This just happens to be a killer deal for anyone who bothers clicking on the link.

    Ask not what SBAF can do for you, ask what you can do for SBAF.

    In other words, this is a thread for tipping off good deals to others, not asking others to find you good deals.

    I agree this thread is for posting good deals we find on audio items whether headphones, amps or sources to help members find deals on an item they are looking to buy and hold onto for a long time or are interested in trying. Yet, I feel me asking if someone has seen a good deal on a product is appropriate, as we all have different search methods and websites we scan for good deals such as audio mart, audiogon, audio circle, r/avexchange, head fi, and eBay and someone may have seen something that another one of us could have missed. In the future I will post more of the good deals I see on products to help everyone else out. I hope you all are having a wonderful evening!
