seti Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 So the Kaiser calls me up and says hey my father in law saw some 3ft high european looking speakers at an estate sale you should go check em out. Well hell I was on the road and half way there 10 minutes later. The house was in one of Little Rocks old money neighborhoods and the house turned out to be a Fay Jones so it was really cool. The house was really packed with awesome mid century modern furniture. Then I spot a pair of Klipsch Belles need refinishing but Brazillian Rosewood with a depressing sign reading *SOLD*. How much were they you ask? $350. Thanks for the heads up Kaiser Almost! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time, if he's unwilling to front the money on the chance that it's a good (great, in this case) deal, perhaps you can persuade him to do something disruptive, like faking a heart attack, or vomiting on the speakers (they had to be refinished anyway, right?). That would give seti enough time to swoop in and snag those puppies. BTW Tim, I wish all the best to your father-in-law, as I do to you and the whole Kaiser clan. You're the best!![Y] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seti Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 I was visibly drooling and stammering at the same time after I saw them. They they they they they are soooolllllllldddddddd nnnnoooooooo. Fortunately the call was on a Friday afternoon when I could leave. Two hours is cutting it very close. Almost!!!!! I'm waiting for them to show up in one of the local thrift stores. That is what they do hit the estate sales and resale in the stores.
