I guess it’s worth mentioning here that I purchased my open box 64 audio u12t from headphones.com and they actually sent me a brand new sealed u12t.
UK Audio Mart
I should point out that moon audio is also good for some more obscure items like Replacement earpads for Focal Headphones
I expanded and added a few locations if that’s okay
Thomann for EU. They also ship worldwide afaik
Europe, new
- EU-wide, based in Germany
- Free shipping > 25 EUR
- 30-day returns with shipping paid
- German-only site
- French, English site
- Has lots of chi-fi and monoprice stuff
- Probably not as well-stocked as the US version, but better than Schiit
- Germany
- More DACs and amps than headphones
- German-only site
- Can ship test articles for 7 days, if available.
- Netherlands
- No open-box returns?
- UK, does have items with EU power plugs too
Cable makers
- Poland

- Free shipping over £75
- UK
- Also do mods and pads
- UK

The whole point of making the 2nd post a wiki is so others can edit it lol, so just add your suggestions into the list is what I would say. But I do think it’s probably a good idea to differentiate between NA, Euro, and Aisa to keep things somewhat organized, so I’ll make it one as well for now
You can actually edit marcgii’s post and add it to the list yourself. I’ve been doing that a bit
Yeah, that was my point. Keeping the European stuff separate to make things clear
Added Canadian Stores
Added a few stores
Added Drop to US list - it is a sort of store.
Also, I’m thinking the list should be alphabetized so it’s easier to find everything. Thoughts?
I added a section for audio cables. I was trying to figure out what Hart audio cables typically cost but apparently nothing is available right now lol
Should we pin this thread? I think it will also be a good idea to also pin the formatting guide thread as well
Formating & Forum Advice Thread
Hart prices are showing up for me. Approx. $30 each + $15 for interconnects
That can also very if you decide to go custom, though it is detailed in the custom shop
Custom color: $2
Custom terminations: $10
Custom length: can very dependent on length and cable design
Damn guys thank you
Added Audiogon. Aside from Ebay, that should be all the noteworthy US stores for used gear
I started a similar thread a long while ago. I need to find it and add some of the stores we had there to this thread…if anyone can assist that is appreciated
I think I found it plus a couple others
