MOD [MOD ANNOUNCEMENT] New Feedback Bot Online PLEASE READ

178 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I am pleased to announce that r/AVexchange now has a feedback bot up and running!

The bot’s name is u/AVexchangeBot and has the following features:

Feedback

A user can get trade feedback with the following process:

Note, this document says the word "trade" a lot but that means, trading, purchasing, or selling.

  • Users A and B complete their trades following all of the sub rules. (It does not matter who A and B are. Either one could be the person making the post, and the other someone commenting on the post).

  • Once the trade is complete, User A makes a top level comment (new comment) on the original trade post tagging both the user they traded with and u/AVexchangeBot.

  • User B replies to that comment with their feedback.

  • u/AVexchangeBot picks up the interaction and gives credit to both users, changing their flair accordingly and leaves a comment indicating as such.

  • If User A messes up their top level comment, u/AVexchangeBot will do its best to notify User A.

There are automatic checks in the code to detect anyone trying to cheat the system. If anyone is found trying to circumvent the system, they will be issued a permanent ban.

If you engaged in a trade with someone without starting off discussion in either one of your posts or theirs, please tag the bot in the most recent post from either you or your trade partner to engage for feedback. The bot required that the OP of the post it is being tagged in is either you or your trade partner.

DO NOT DELETE POSTS otherwise you will NOT be able to use that post to confirm a trade.

Feedback Checking

Using this link, you can send a message to u/AVexchangeBot, asking for the feedback of any given user. It will tell you the following:

  • The number of trades that person has done

  • The people they have traded with

  • A link to the thread for each successful trade

Please feel free to direct any technical questions to the us, the moderators using modmail, if you do not know how to use modmail, please click this link.

If you notice any odd behavior from the bot, please let us know!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I had a ton of confirmed transactions before, what happened to my flair?

Flair was only backfilled for people who used the old feedback threads listed here, here, and here. If you never left a comment in these threads, or if you were never tagged in these threads, you did not get feedback backfilled.

I think I qualify to have feedback backfilled but my number is not quite right. What gives?

The scraping process was automated. This means that it was about 95% accurate. Some people might have a few more or fewer trades in their flair than they expect. Please do not request an adjustment unless you can prove that the difference between your flair and what you expect is > 10.

I never used those feedback threads you mentioned but I have done some trades/sales before. Can I still get credit?

Yes! You can follow the process detailed above to credit yourself for any trade you did not already get credit for. If the transaction happened > 6 months ago, you're out of luck though, due to Reddit limitations.

What happens if I tag someone and they don't reply?

As mentioned above, we do need them to confirm the trade for the trade to be confirmed. They will get a notification when you tag them so if you encourage them to reply in the comment you tagged them in, hopefully they will. Otherwise, if it's been a few days without a response, PM them a link to the comment and directly ask them to reply.


If you have any questions on using the bot, please post them here and I'll answer ASAP.

Thanks for being an awesome community, looking forward to this bot helping streamline the trading process!

MOD [MOD] Uptick in Scammers, Banned Users, Chat Requests & Fake Timestamps

77 Upvotes

I'm seeing a noticeable rise in scam activity on the sub, and I felt the need to make a post and remind everyone; especially newer members; to know what to watch for.

What's happening:

Banned users are on rise sending chat requests. People we've removed or have been removed via the USL are sending chat requests to hit up buyers directly. This circumvents the ban system as we cannot stop them from sending you a chat request. If someone sends you a chat and will not make a comment on your post after asking them to, it usually means they are banned as banned users cannot post or make comments. Their ban status can be checked via Universal Scammer List and typing in their name.

With the rise of AI, we are seeing a ton of fake timestamps being made. Scammers are getting accounts over the 3-month old age limit and making new WTS posts with essentially blank profiles and deals too good to be true. As the old saying goes, if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Having an older account with barely any history doesn't mean they are 100% a scammer but it's worth being cautious. Sometimes you can catch the photo being fake by looking at company logos or other text in the image that got screwed up in the generation. If anything feels sketchy, report it to the mod team to investigate.

How to protect yourself:

Never deal strictly in chat! If a user won't leave a public comment on your post after asking, check the USL and/or block/move on.

Always use PayPal Goods & Services (G&S) when you're the one paying. Yes, it costs a little more in fees, but it's your only real recourse if a deal goes bad. If anyone pressures you toward Friends & Family, crypto, gift cards, or Venmo/Zelle and you're not comfortable using one of those payment methods with the seller; you are not obligated or forced to.

Report anything sketchy to the mod team so we can investigate as well as scams that have unfortunately happened to you, it helps us protect the next person.

Stay safe out there!

Just doing the annual cleanup. Assume that it will come with everything unless stated and also refer to pictures as well. If you want some more closeups feel free to PM and I can provide more photos.

Honestly prefer Zelle or Venmo or PayPal F&F but can do PayPal G&S with additional 6% tacked on.

Prices include shipping to continental US. If outside US feel free to pm but I can't cover shipping.

  1. Moondrop X Crinacle Dusk - $250 shipped, ended up upgrading to something else
  2. (Potentially sold, pending payment) 7hz Timeless - $100 Shipped, couldn't really get into these, tossing in aftermarket mic cable as well. I got these second hand with some light scuffing on the edges of the IEM but it's not too bad.
  3. Etymotic ER2SE - $65 shipped, barely used
  4. Etymotic ER3SE - $65 shipped, barely used
  5. Moondrop SSR - $20 Shipped, no use for these anymore
  6. Dunu Titan X - $20 Shipped, these just weren't for me
  7. Jialai Carat - $15 shipped, not for me

This set of DITA Dream XLS are in excellent condition and include the original packaging as well as original accessories. The original cable is also included which is a 2-pin modular cable. The cable does have a bit of yellowing above the 2-pin connectors but of course doesn’t affect performance.
The driver configuration is a single Ultra-linear Dynamic Driver Gen. XLS with a composite diaphragm. This was their flagship at the time of release for 2299.00. It has a tight punchy bass, clean mids and expansive treble.

6 Upvotes

Hi again everyone,

I'm back with some price drops on my Schiit gear and some headphones that I'm looking to sell.

Timestamp/Album for headphones

Old Schiit album

Vidar amp album

Hifiman HE1000se: This pair needs no introduction. So unbelievably quick and revealing, and the soundstage is unlike any other. Purchased in pristine condition from the original owner here a little over a month ago and kept in a smoke-free home. Very gently used. Only selling because I prefer my HD800S and this just sits around, so it would be better off with someone else. Comes with all cables and original box. $925 SOLD for $890

Hifiman Arya Stealth: Catch and release for me, I purchased this from another user here about a month or so ago but never really used it since I had the HE1000se. I believe the ear pads are aftermarket velour hybrid pads. Comes with modular Hart Audio cable with 1/4" termination. $350 SOLD

ASUS ROG Kithara: Purchased from Newegg in May or June I believe. Rarely used because the headband adjustment is a little loose and I don't game that much anyway. Comes with original box and accessories. $210 $175

(PRICE DROP) Schiit Mjolnir 3 [Silver]: This is Schiit's current flagship solid-state amp. Enough power for basically anything you throw at it. I am the second owner. It'll be very hard to part with this beast of an amp. $925 $850 SOLD

(PRICE DROP) Schiit Valhalla 3 [Black]: I bought this very lightly used off a user on Head-Fi but never really got around to using it much. Stock tubes are basically new with less than 5 hours of use with me. Very nice entry into tube amps. $390 $360

(PRICE DROP) Schiit Freya S with Remote [Silver]: I bought this gently used a couple of weeks ago for my living room speaker and home theater setup, but I have since moved over to a single Marantz receiver to consolidate. There are some very faint marks on the top, shown in the pictures. $325 $275

Schiit Vidar [Silver]: This was my main amp for my speakers up until recently. Tons of power (100W per channel into 8 ohms, 200W per channel into 4 ohms), and no issues at all. Gets a little warm, but not too hot to touch. $360 SOLD for $330

All prices include shipping and G&S. Feel free to reach out with any questions! Reasonable offers considered. Willing to offer a discount for local (47906) pickup.

Up for sale is a brand new Headamame / Head(amame) Pro with the standard mini-XLR to 3.5mm cable.

I backed this project early on but my situation has changed over the last year and I’d rather someone who has been patiently awaiting their release to enjoy them!
They’re currently being hand built in Canada and still have a backlog of orders.

I tested them out and they’re working great. But otherwise less than 10 minutes use.

Cleaning out a part of my collection to make space. All prices below includes Paypal G&S fees and shipping in Conus. I have tried my best to explain the condition of each pair.

Fiio FT5: $260

- This are practically brand new with a very little wear on it. They are beautiful cans - Visually and sonically.

- Comes with both Velour and Leather Pads. Leather pads are totally unused. There is no scratch or any kind of damage.

- Comes with 3.5mm unbalanced and 4.4mm balanced adapters.

- Unfortunately, I can't find the soft velvet pouch it came with but it comes with the leather hard case shown in the picture.

Sennheiser HDB 630: $340

- I have been using them for some time now but I have really taken care of the headphones. They have been my daily driver for past couple months.

- I have put WC Freeze Cushions on them and they are really comfortable but they also come with original pads if you want to swap them out.

- Comes with all original accesssories - BTD700 dongle, USB C cable, 3.5mm cable and travel adapter.

- I have 3D printed a TPU Capra strap and it makes a huge difference wearing them long term!!

Beyerdynamics DT770 Pro: $80

- They were my first audiophile headphones and have had them for a little over 3 years now.

- They were my daily driver for a long time so the pads have a little wear as you can see in the picture.

- 3.5mm Audiojack broke a year ago so I replaced the audiojack. It hasn't changed the sound profile of the headphones and they work just like before without any issues.

Feel free to ping me with questions if you have any.

try to clean up some equipments I don't use often.

Moondrop Para 2 with upgrade pads/cable $275

For pads it comes with original pads and upgrade pads HS-FT1C pads for FT1 Pro. This pads is the closer pad to the mystery pads mentioned in https://youtu.be/Uiq57Jgjxao?t=387 : This is one of the best sounding headphones when I put these mysterious pads on here.

For the cable I no longer have original cable so I include a Youkamoo 4.4mm balance upgrade cable.

No box for the headphone but I always pack it firmly.

My price includes shipping. Thanks!

Singxer sa-2 with power cable no original box $350 will update later
