Available Sony XA-5400ES Units
« on: 13 Mar 2012, 06:11 pm »
As many of you know, it is getting harder to locate the XA-5400ES new or used for sale.  It is a true shame and I can't understand Sony's logic, but it is, as many of you know, a FANTASTIC UNIT!

Kristin just brought to my attention, a unit available (used), for $900.

Thanks!

If units are still available from the seller in the post of March 22, Great!

If not here is an E-Bay listing:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=251038650683&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:US:1123

Don't know the seller but has 100% positive feedback.

Thanks, but...

Who is this VegaTV?  Their website is terrible, no company info.

I kind of live on Audiogon.  Every 3-4 days there is one posted for sale.  They tend to sell very quickly.

Don't know anything about the seller, but I get messages from E-Bay when these Sony's are listed:

Slight degree of a risk with Audiogon feedback at '0' on the ad above. Having said that............. we have ALL been at '0' at some point on E-Bay or Audiogon!

Good feedback numbers aren't a perfect predictor of a smooth transaction, but you need to be careful with your $$$...................

You could ask them if they have any history on other sites like ebay

Absolutely, Eric!

We have all been at '0' feedback when first starting to buy or sell on Audiogon or E-Bay.

The unit we are referring to on Audiogon is now listed by the seller as 'expired' although the Audiogon expiration date is in June?

With the new Audiogon system "expired' means the unit has been sold.  They go pretty fast as I stated above.  I'll keep posting on here when I see them for sale...

You can also search all of Craigslist.  They do pop up from time to time - http://www.adhuntr.com/
