I have a full system that I am selling as I move into the next phase of my audiophile quest for the best. Bottom line is I have 3 XPA amps I was wondering where I should sell? Any advise would be appreciated.

Why not both, sell them here for a lower (less commission and hassle) price. Check what completed sales have gone for there.

You won't have much luck with a complete system here; it'll have to be piece meal unless you practically give it away. People here have systems and just get different pieces to augment.

So what I find is that eBay is usually the easiest place for me to sell things. I will post things here, on AVS, and on eBay. I always list my eBay stuff 10% more to cover the fees, but almost always it sells on ebay. This forum is okay, but for selling this AVS does seem like it better (ie I get more response).
But I would just sell each amp as its own, don't bundle them unless you just want them off of your hands quickly and you are okay with a little price hit. Put them up here, AVS, and eBay. The XPA Amps tend to sell fairly quickly and on eBay when you sell through them you get pretty good discounts on the shipping rates which with those heavy amps actually helps a lot.

Ebay is my place so long as the guidelines are in place to protect yourself from buyers that don’t know how to read. Bill

Use USAudiomart or Audiogon.
Small or no fees, knowledgable clientele.

Use USAudiomart or Audiogon. Small or new fees, knowledgable clientele. Agreed, haven’t used AudiogoN in a while, but made some big sales there in the past, lately have had good luck with USAudiomart.

Thanks everyone and I listed all of the items in my footer on ebay. Its time to move over and try a two channel rig I have always wanted. A few of the items are already selling well over what I paid and surprised. Thank you everyone and ebay seems to be working well. I am also getting some questions about why my XPA2 Gen1 has a red light and I listed that in the correct forum. I never really noticed it until a possible buyer commented on it.

This is good news.... you will do well I’m sure. Just to be clear, I think ALL of the market places that have been suggested are good options, but the real trick about selling is to be BRUTALLY honest, and not dreamy about what you’re trying to move out. All the other guidelines fall into place behind that. I only prefer Ebay because no one else gets mathematically close to viewing your stuff. Bill
