Fuses and opamps can be replaced. Why slag him by inferring that he somehow
misrepresented it to a potential buyer?

Maybe because he's a snake oil merchant?

Usually, but not always. Check out this auction on eBay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=5803220194

The manufacturer offers a 5-year extended warranty on this particular
component. Yet the seller would have you believe that in all that time
(probably 6 years) he only put 50 hours on it. Yeah... Right...

That's a whole other thing... I exchanged a few emails with this guy;
he's real piece of work. His price is also completely ridiculous. The
last Perreaux SM-6 sold for about $700.00 on Audiogon.

Congrats for spotting the scam.

You've been made a "junior bluebook valuation deputy"!

I have a DA-88 which fits that scenario, except it's more like 12 years.
