I just learned about Stereolist from a friend posting over on Audio Circle. Traffic and content is a little light at the moment for anyone to really claim it as a major alternative to A'gon but it shows promise. The pricing structure and the more consumer-friendly disposition apparent from the 'about' page suggests it's worth giving this new site some encouragement. I'll be monitoring it for a few weeks to see how it goes. Here's hoping...

Thanks for the mention, love the blog. Definitely hoping more folks drop by and list their used gear. Clean out those closets! Use this coupon for free Featured Stereolistings till the end of September: audiomatters

The search features, or lack thereof, stink. That's a killer. Also ads take up too much space on the homepage. "Categories" comprises about 1/100th of the page until you hover over it. The rest is cluttered with seller and sponsor/banner ads and site-related information. JC, think about UI/UX more from the buyer perspective.
The site is getting some upgrades very soon. I'm not sure I agree with all your assessments, we try to give an image-based experience and the Search functions will be improved; do appreciate the feedback though.
and if you look at how much "unnecessary" junk is trying to load in the background (website/webpage generation). it would be best to continue searching for a "better than AudioGon" and greedBay (eBay) solution. stereolist was no better than a blank webpage. and yes, i tried to enable/allow several blocked scripts.
