    I had one shipping disaster about 7 years ago with a pair of RB-5's and was determined for that to never happen again.  And it hasn't.

     

    This is how it's done when you don't have original packaging.  White box is lined with three inches of foam.  Every possible square inch of space in box was filled with bubble wrap, foam, crumbled newspaper, you name it.  Absolutely no movement inside box from Central Florida to Southern California.

     

    @dmraupp,

     

    Sorry about your misfortunes and hope it all works out in the end.

    I sure wish the Krell would have been packed like that.

    Unbelievable.  I don't blame you for being upset.

     

    Another unbelievable!   :o

     

    How could someone own an amp as nice (and expensive!) as a Krell and NOT know that it had to be packaged better than bubble wrap.

     

    Could it be that the Krell was damaged and the Seller was either thinking he could refund a few bucks and you would keep it, or that he knew he could go after FedEx?

     

    Anytime I ship something I take pics of all angles of the item, all pics of the box before shipping, probably 20 pictures in all.  I've never had an issue.

    That is certainly a possibility.I have the exact message the seller sent to me after I told him that the amp was received damaged(quote below)

     

    1."Are you kidding me please send me pictures. Is the box damaged? That would be the only way for it to be broken the device was wrapped in bubble wrap 6 times and had the box filled with bubble wrap and other hard cardboard"END QUOTE

    This is the response I just received moments ago when I contacted Monoprice about a possible purchase of a 100 pound amplifier they listed with an ETA of 3/30/2018

    I asked how they packaged this to ensure it is delivered without damage, is it double boxed? 

     

    You’ll find the packing around the amp to be a type of pillow/air-filled plastic.

     

     

    No,not more damaged audio gear!

    Wow, that sucks. I don't doubt it though. I just bought a single H II off of Ebay and it arrived with one single sheet of the small bubble wrap on each side panel of the speaker. No protection for corners, edges or anything. Luckily my postmaster marked the box refused and returned to sender. I got the entirety of my payment back from Paypal including the shipping cost. The idiot that sold me the speaker gets his damaged speaker back plus has to pay over $110 in return shipping charges due to his lack of proper packing per the postmaster. If he fails to pay it, he won't even get the speaker back at all. I have no idea what goes through peoples heads when they are shipping large heavy fragile items.

     

    I hope you get your Krell situation squared away.

    I bought it through Audiogon.I had to use Audiogon's express checkout because the seller did not accept PayPal.That means the buyer protection is through Audiogon also.I have never used it before but they seem really good at handling these issues.Audiogon offers buyer 7 days to file a claim.After the item is initially received Audiogon sends a email with a tab to click on that says "looks good"if you click on that button Audiogon releases the funds to the seller and no more recourse is available.I filed a claim right after unpacking the amp.I received an email from customer service requesting more info and pictures.I sent all that in last night,this morning I received email saying they put a hold on the payment and will process a refund.I think all is good.Funny thing is the seller is going to file a claim against FedEx,Yeah good luck with that.

    Yes I ended the auction early due to a couple issues.The 1st issue was a Ebay bidder bidding up my auction to the reserve price.Then 18 hours later retracted his bid which put it back at the high bid of $454.I did not like that everyone knew the reserve price at that point .The 2nd issue was I received my Krell amp yesterday with the side trim piece broke completely off.The seller could not believe that it arrived damaged with his great packing job.I was completely shocked that is all the damage it sustained.The seller shipped a 60 lb Krell KAV-500 amp wrapped in bubble wrap with some cardboard thrown in for good measure.Then put it all in a box that was 24x18x18 allowing the amp to have plenty of leg room for the road trip.That is when I decided to just end the sale and keep what I have for now.

    I've never refinished a metal cab on an amp but those scratches look superficial like you said.  I bet with some light sanding with a fine sandpaper they would easily clean up.

    Those are really detailed pics.I wanted to make sure any potential buyer was prepared for the worst.I am a firm believer in under promise over deliver.I always under grade any gear I sell anyway.I did take a pic tonight with my Canon.

    Can't say for sure but the facial "blemishes" could be a factor as well as silver in color since most have black components.  I know the A52 was about $2500.00 when new so technically your price is not out of line.  

     

    Give it some time, it will sell.

    I don't know anything about amps and their prices, but why would think that?  

     

    Your ad as of this post has only been up for a little over a day.  Maybe it needs some more time?  Your subject title also says "interest check."  Maybe it would help to say "for sale."

    Good point,thank you

    Does this model allow you to bridge the two channels?

    I would say no,the following is from the manual.

     

    The ST 1000 series amplifier is a stereo amplifier design that will produce peaks in excess of 625W with 8 ohm loads and 1225W with 4 ohm loads per channel depending on model. Each channel of the stereo amplifiers is powered from their own dedicated power supply. The compact and effective design is made easy thanks to the switching power supply that powers the bridged switching output stage derived from ICEpower™ technology.
