I think he means that people are buying from Head-Fi then selling them for more on Japan Auction Sites

Resale behavior is legitimate.
BUT, has gone too far.

The XIN SM series has soared in Japan. To in addition to it is bid successfully at 100,000 Yen or more.

High demand for Xin amps + loooooooooooooooooooooooong waiting time = profit!!

Kinda sad that this guys trying to get some cheap profit through questionable means.
Also, looking at the FS section, is he using another user ID as well?

Buying cheaply with Head-Fi, you think that the behavior which sells high in Japan is many sadly.

All people do not think have resold with.
But, the buying and selling with Head-Fi has become trading for the person of part. Well…

htotsuka seems that hides the profile of Head-Fi.
htotsuka, please be conscious.
Do not utilize the good intention of Head-Fi in money-making.

i wonder what is the value of xin supermicro IV in japan @_@

 

[nickyboyo]

It is a sad state of affairs when people resort to this sort of action. Profiteering in this manner sucks, if i had no use for an amp and decided to sell it, i would like to think it was going to someone who would appreciate it. If it was sold on due to upgrade or not meeting the buyers requirements, then fair enough- but for pure profit (bordering on greed in this case)- bad form old boy.

Now that i've stepped off my soapbox, i have a very rare Xin supermicro iii, fully tweaked up by the scarlet pimpernel himself (Dr. Xin)- please pm me- offers over US$500 only please

 

[T.IIZUKA]

The amplifier of Dr. XIN becomes large amount of money because it is hard-to-find.
There might be a person who purely wants it, too.

Please check the number etc. of Post of other parties at FS and WTB.
I think so. It doesn't sell it to the person who has joined Head-Fi for the self-interest.

xin supermacro IV is show up in yahoo japan auction, but the price is already very high...

why does this thread keep getting bumped?? oops lookie there I did it

 

[jamato8]

I have been listening to the SM3 for the past few days. I have all of the series from 1 to 2 and up and the 3, IMO, was, is the best. What I have been listening to stands up to anything made today. It is like a collectable I guess since even Xin doesn't have one now. Looks like mine that I converted to an amp only, no volume control, should be converted back. :^)

 

[a_tumiwa]

Supermacro has how many series??
SM1, SM2, SM3, SM3 V6, SM3B, SM4, SM LE???
