Expert 1000Pro CI Value
#1
A few questions for the group. For better or worse I have decided to move on from my 1000Pro CI. Lots of factors for this but I have made the decision. The question is what is the value of an Expert - particularly the 1000? While contemplating the move I posted one of my 250s on Audiogon at about half the price of a new 250Pro CI (my usual 'valuation' for a used audio component). After a month I got loads of looks but no interest. So does that mean it was listed to high? Experts are less desirable then they used to be? There is more interest outside the USA in the Expert line (my listing was tagged as USA only)? If I expand the sale to beyond the US does the VAT taxes I keep hearing about make it prohibitively expensive? 

There are very few 250 / 1000 on the market so it makes it hard to understand what their value really is. On the other hand, the market is what the market is...there is a price at which they will sell - it just a question of where that price point is, and, how long it takes to find it. My desire is to not spend the next 4 months lowering the price bit by bit so I though others here on DevialetChat may have some helpful insight...

For those who may wonder I am now using a pair of Pass X-260.8 mono blocks, a Pass XP-12 Preamp, and Denafrips Venus ll DAC. 

Any thoughts would be appreciated,
