Why choose to trade on Preloved Headphone Zone?
BUY OR SELL THROUGH US
BUY OR SELL ON YOUR OWN
Buyers, there is no scope of being cheated, as we certify all seller listings to ensure the product is genuine. We check the invoice or other proof of purchase to ensure the product is not fake.
Buyers, you're left to your own (technically, someone else's) devices to ensure that the product matches the description and condition shared by the seller. It's a shot in the dark that you won't get scammed!
No shipping headache for either buyer or seller. We handle it all.
Depending on your agreement with each other, either the buyer or seller must handle the headache of shipping the preloved gear.
As a seller, you may hide, delete or change prices flexibly. As a buyer, you can easily browse through listings by price, category and brand.
Once you have posted your WTB/WTS post on the many forums online, making changes is often time consuming and usually requires discussion.
As a buyer, you get 48 hours to confirm whether the product matches the description. If there's a problem, you can change your mind and return the product without any cost.
As a buyer, if you receive a product that does not match the seller's listing details, it's unfortunately likely that the seller may ghost you despite your many contact attempts.
As a seller, you will be advised if your product can sell faster if you drop price compared to similar listings of other sellers. As a buyer, you are spoilt for choice because there are so many options!
Pricing is usually difficult and inflexible to change for sellers without inviting questions where you have to explain and justify yourself.
You become a part of a community that helps each other improve their personal inventory of the world's finest audio gear.
No sense of community, and kind of cumbersome pulling off trades that somehow seem to take forever with lots of one-on-one conversations.
Timely replies and communication not only with me, but also with the counter-party. Although would have loved to have a direct communication with the other person, still the Headphone Zone team makes it feel direct communication only.
The listing of the pre-owned product is quite accurate and descriptive, with photos and other relevant details. The post purchase communication is also prompt and your employee keeps communicating until deal is done.
Loyal fan base and audiophiles are filled in the pre owned gear classifieds. The love for the gear and honesty in handling, is updated in the usage section which makes it even more trustworthy to go even blind on a buy.
The customer support is very good for any issues related to listing/purchasing the pre-owned gear, arranging the pickups and follow-up until the case is closed.
You get a good quality product at a very low price when you buy pre-owned and if it is through the headphone zone, you can always trust that products will be in a good condition.
Headphone Zone's pre-owned gear listings offer a rare opportunity for audiophiles & hobbyists in India to buy equipment at significantly lower prices, while ensuring buyer protection & peace of mind in case something goes wrong.
Why buy Preloved vs New Ear Gear?
Save big, Smile bigger
Not endlessly finicky about your personal belongings? You should have no problem buying preloved audio gear especially if you also get to save some money too.
Preowned = Preheated oven
It makes sense to save the time burning in new headphones needs. Typically, brand new audio gear can take weeks to break in and sound as good as they should.
Consider it Vintage
Vintage products have a certain charm that cannot be put into words. think of old, preloved headphones as vintage. they have a story; they have, how do you say - character.
Help a Buddy Out
The audiophile community in this country is small and the more people that have each others backs, the better. after all, is there a bigger strength than that of unity?
