What are the high-end stereo brands StereoBuyers does not buy?

Below are brands we typically do not buy, but it’s not exhaustive. The current resale value is just not high enough for us to justify making an offer.

In general, most “all in one” “rack systems” and most “consumer” A/V gear from the ‘80s through the ‘00s - e.g. a $400 receiver from Best Buy in the ‘90s - just isn’t in demand today, even if it still works well, unfortunately.
