No, that was a Premium Listing. The fee was only $10, as the item value was less than $999. If the item was say $5000, the fee would go up to $100.
The basic listing is $4, irrespective of the item value.

There is a thread here about alternatives to Audiogon. If you/we are so dissatisfied with Audiogon, why don't we start trying out these services giving them some legs and provide more competition.
Force of habits I guess , despite all the complaints we, automatically turn to Audiogon to sell or purchase gears.. I, included. Please let's start putting our money where our mouths are:

I transfered all my ads to http://www.usaudiomart.com/
Seems quite lively - they have almost 900 ads in the speakers category alone.
Best of all - it is free.

Thanks for posting that link. I had never heard of them. I do remember the little paper based audiomart (pre Al Gore's Internet) that I used to sell lots of stuff through.
I just sold an audio stand on USAudioMart in a transaction that went smoothly. It took a while and, arguably, I might have sold it more quickly on Audiogon. But, I personally dislike Audiogon's fee policy and the fact that for non-premium ads you are forced to use PayPal. In my personal opinion PayPal is not friendly to sellers.
Definately. For all items costing less then $999, it is worth spending the $6 extra.
The problem starts when you want to list sth for say $5000 ($100 fee).
The difficult thing is that Audiogon is still the best place to sell gear. Even with the site's overall decline, it still gets more traffic than the alternatives.
I have had some luck using usaudiomart for selling a few things, but you have to be very patient.
I also wish that more people would use hifishark to look for gear, since it accesses a huge number of sites at once. Then it really wouldn't matter where people listed stuff.
