New/Used online HiFi dealers.

The following is a list of online new/used/ex demonstration hifi dealers. Used and ex demonstration equipment is, in my opinion, a good alternative to full-price new equipment, as well as offering high-end equipment, without the equally high-end price. The list comes from a thread on the HiFi Choice forum, and credit for the list goes to CJROSS of that forum:

www.richersounds.com

and

www.superfi.co.uk

Probably both been missed out due to not really being "Audiophile" retailers, but still worth a look for us meer mortals Theres also:

www.************.co.uk - but I have mixed feelings on them.

Just seen a brief profile on this company in the British Audio Journal. I think they are relatively new on the scene, but it's an interesting business model, and one that may be very interesting if and when they get additional industry support.

How's about www.hififorsale.com

Not many people here will agree with the sites fairy dust products (and price tags) but the second hand section is ver good.

Any chance we can be added to the list? We don't deal directly in used equipment, but we have a board in store that our customers can use free of charge.

Frank Harvey Hi-Fi - I assume it would be a good idea to put that instead of "trade member"....I'll change that now.
