That's probably where I would start in a situation like that to keep me interested if they want a higher offer they need to justify it with some pictures IMO. Where on Earth? Must be dreaming. Stuck in a time capsule. Just because you wouldn't. #157 in line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was addressing the lack of interest of the seller to properly list / advertise his speakers if he cant be bothered to do some basic footwork on his end a potential buyer could just as easily approach the purchase with the same amount of enthusiasm. I would not expect to buy the speakers at that price just start the conversation on why he would need to do a little more work on his end if he expects a more appropriate offer. After buying tons of speakers and equipment over the years need to learn to cut to the chase and spot wasters of time sooner than later so you can spend more time chasing other deals. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Make me an offer"......sight unseen, is not my idea of a proper negotiation. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Matthews Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Excellent is excellent. Make an offer contingent on them being in excellent condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

314carpenter Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Wait. Who got the 10% finders fee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff. Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I regret passing on a pair of these for $800 bucks because they didn’t “spec” low enough for me, on paper... I was looking for something that went lower than my Cornwalls, on paper... THEN I read how Mr. Bob Crites himself had posted here that he had a VERY hard time telling the two apart. I now have the KP-301s (exact same drivers in practically the same size, less pretty box) that also don’t spec low enough for me, on paper... Yet they consistently deliver satisfying bass that belies the “specs” because the K-48 responds SO well to tone controls and still stays tight. Live and learn, eh? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember somewhere here, Bob posting how his partial hearing loss did not make him the best judge by ear. If you need a good judge find yourself a youngster to tell you what's happening.
