Update: I send a PM to Ed and asked him to call me. He bought the speakers new and used the third one for a center speaker. He got burned when selling a SUB recently online and it got returned so he is hesitant with shipping and really wants local pick up along with cash. I can't blame him. We are in discussion about price and shipping and will talk again tomorrow.
Note: he is not affiliated with Ed's Audio Emporium. That business name was in the pop down menu when he listed his sellers name as Ed :-). He is a retired Filipino American and gun-shy with email inquiries after the SUB sale went sideways.
Thanks again, all. I will keep you posted.
