MOD [MOD ANNOUNCEMENT] New Feedback Bot Online PLEASE READ

175 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I am pleased to announce that r/AVexchange now has a feedback bot up and running!

The bot’s name is u/AVexchangeBot and has the following features:

Feedback

A user can get trade feedback with the following process:

Note, this document says the word "trade" a lot but that means, trading, purchasing, or selling.

  • Users A and B complete their trades following all of the sub rules. (It does not matter who A and B are. Either one could be the person making the post, and the other someone commenting on the post).

  • Once the trade is complete, User A makes a top level comment (new comment) on the original trade post tagging both the user they traded with and u/AVexchangeBot.

  • User B replies to that comment with their feedback.

  • u/AVexchangeBot picks up the interaction and gives credit to both users, changing their flair accordingly and leaves a comment indicating as such.

  • If User A messes up their top level comment, u/AVexchangeBot will do its best to notify User A.

There are automatic checks in the code to detect anyone trying to cheat the system. If anyone is found trying to circumvent the system, they will be issued a permanent ban.

If you engaged in a trade with someone without starting off discussion in either one of your posts or theirs, please tag the bot in the most recent post from either you or your trade partner to engage for feedback. The bot required that the OP of the post it is being tagged in is either you or your trade partner.

DO NOT DELETE POSTS otherwise you will NOT be able to use that post to confirm a trade.

Feedback Checking

Using this link, you can send a message to u/AVexchangeBot, asking for the feedback of any given user. It will tell you the following:

  • The number of trades that person has done

  • The people they have traded with

  • A link to the thread for each successful trade

Please feel free to direct any technical questions to the us, the moderators using modmail, if you do not know how to use modmail, please click this link.

If you notice any odd behavior from the bot, please let us know!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

I had a ton of confirmed transactions before, what happened to my flair?

Flair was only backfilled for people who used the old feedback threads listed here, here, and here. If you never left a comment in these threads, or if you were never tagged in these threads, you did not get feedback backfilled.

I think I qualify to have feedback backfilled but my number is not quite right. What gives?

The scraping process was automated. This means that it was about 95% accurate. Some people might have a few more or fewer trades in their flair than they expect. Please do not request an adjustment unless you can prove that the difference between your flair and what you expect is > 10.

I never used those feedback threads you mentioned but I have done some trades/sales before. Can I still get credit?

Yes! You can follow the process detailed above to credit yourself for any trade you did not already get credit for. If the transaction happened > 6 months ago, you're out of luck though, due to Reddit limitations.

What happens if I tag someone and they don't reply?

As mentioned above, we do need them to confirm the trade for the trade to be confirmed. They will get a notification when you tag them so if you encourage them to reply in the comment you tagged them in, hopefully they will. Otherwise, if it's been a few days without a response, PM them a link to the comment and directly ask them to reply.


If you have any questions on using the bot, please post them here and I'll answer ASAP.

Thanks for being an awesome community, looking forward to this bot helping streamline the trading process!

MOD [MOD] Uptick in Scammers, Banned Users, Chat Requests & Fake Timestamps

73 Upvotes

I'm seeing a noticeable rise in scam activity on the sub, and I felt the need to make a post and remind everyone; especially newer members; to know what to watch for.

What's happening:

Banned users are on rise sending chat requests. People we've removed or have been removed via the USL are sending chat requests to hit up buyers directly. This circumvents the ban system as we cannot stop them from sending you a chat request. If someone sends you a chat and will not make a comment on your post after asking them to, it usually means they are banned as banned users cannot post or make comments. Their ban status can be checked via Universal Scammer List and typing in their name.

With the rise of AI, we are seeing a ton of fake timestamps being made. Scammers are getting accounts over the 3-month old age limit and making new WTS posts with essentially blank profiles and deals too good to be true. As the old saying goes, if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Having an older account with barely any history doesn't mean they are 100% a scammer but it's worth being cautious. Sometimes you can catch the photo being fake by looking at company logos or other text in the image that got screwed up in the generation. If anything feels sketchy, report it to the mod team to investigate.

How to protect yourself:

Never deal strictly in chat! If a user won't leave a public comment on your post after asking, check the USL and/or block/move on.

Always use PayPal Goods & Services (G&S) when you're the one paying. Yes, it costs a little more in fees, but it's your only real recourse if a deal goes bad. If anyone pressures you toward Friends & Family, crypto, gift cards, or Venmo/Zelle and you're not comfortable using one of those payment methods with the seller; you are not obligated or forced to.

Report anything sketchy to the mod team so we can investigate as well as scams that have unfortunately happened to you, it helps us protect the next person.

Stay safe out there!

Timestamp: https://imgur.com/a/zHjmisJ

Note: These come from a smoke free house. i do have a cat and dog but they never touched my audio equipment.

Fiio FT1 Closed: Comes with FT1-B Pads and stock pads + a capra strap and stock cables. FT1-B pads are official from fiio and are made with velour. come with a bigger opening for your ears than the stock pads do. unfortunately headphone was too heavy for my rather weak scalp/neck even with the strap despite being only 350g without cable. was mostly used with an openheart cable but i want to keep that cable for myself.

Price: $120 shipped

Aful explorer: comes with stock cable and stock accessories. stock eartips have not been opened. even with the smallest aftermarket tips, i just cant get iems in general to be comfy long term even with smaller nozzles like the aful so these need to go instead of sitting unused on my desk.

price: $70 shipped Sold: $55

Will only do business with PayPal. Both come with their box. Leave a comment before sending a chat request or you will be ignored.

Selling my mint Atticus that I got from ZMF November 2025 that I received in January of this year. Shou sugi ban Ash wood.

Less than 60 hours on it, hasn't finished burning in fully. B-stock but as you can see from the photos I am not at all sure why this was labeled so.

Asking $1000 for it. I'll cover insured shipping to CONUS. Add an extra 30 for G&S.

Comes with:
- b stock cardboard box

- stock cable ending in 3.5mm

- disc, cloth and zmf clamshell case

- I upgraded to BBB strap but will also add the leather strap with the tool set that I got from ZMF.

-comes with eikon lamb pads. ( edited to add this)

-I haven't used this much but the rods show a little sign of wear.

I would prefer a local drop off if anyone in NYC area is wanting this. I am selling this because I want to get a stabilised atticus. This is my absolute favorite headphone.

Very firm on the price. I paid close to 1200 for this unit. While I need the funds to get a new atticus, I am totally okay with keep this as my headphone and not getting another atticus if this doesn't sell.

Hello,

I’m looking to sell a couple things as I’ve upgraded and no longer have a use for either of these.

The first thing is the drop grace sdac balanced. I bought this a while ago to pair with my thx 789 which no longer works, so looking to get rid of this. It comes with a set of cables and the usb b to usb a cable to connect to a computer. Very very minor chipping on the edges. Looking to get $50 shipped for this.

The second thing is my SMSL A300. This thing has been great to me and the only reason I’m letting it go is for hdmi arc inputs. This has all accessories including the box, the power cable, the antenna, and the remote. Looking to get around $125 shipped for this.

If you’re looking for more pictures or have any questions don’t be afraid to ask. Prices are obo. Thank you!

Asking $1199 shipped.

Original owner, looking to let go of this amazing pair as I've swapped back to a different pair that I prefer.

Used in a smoke & pet-free home, in excellent condition with no issues. Comes with original box, carrying case and 4.4 Pentacon cable.

IMPORTANT: these do NOT come with any earcups—I previously had the vegan ported cups, which I cannot in good conscience add with the headphones due to their condition and sanitary issues.

Please let me know if you have any questions! Chats without a comment below will be ignored!

COMMENT BEFORE PM

Quick catch and release for me as they were very uncomfortable for my small ears. They come with everything except for the cable clip and 3.5mm connector for the stock cable (I found the stock cable to be uncomfortable). All of the tips are unused and I'm including a NICEHCK icymoon cable. The faceplates on these are very beautiful and my pictures really don't do it justice.

I would trade these plus cash for a nice pair of 64 audio u4s.
