Bob Gardner Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) I have a pair of black Heresy IIIs I purchased new in 2010 from a retail audio store - very good condition (slight damage to veneer on the bottom corner of the front face; otherwise excellent condition). Would like to move up to Cornwalls (for many reasons, but the 15" drivers are the largest differentiator). Hoping to find someone with Cornwalls who is downsizing (moving into smaller space, SFA, finances, etc.), but not ready to completely give up that Klipsch Heritage sound ... trade my Heresy's plus cash for your Cornwalls. Will consider any model or finish. Thanks Bob Edited August 16, 2021 by Bob Gardner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Gardner Posted August 12, 2021 Author Share Posted August 12, 2021 I would appreciate any input - what is a fair price range for very good condition Heresy III's, purchased in 2010? I am astounded by the price increase for these in just over ten years - these were $800 each/$1,600 for the pair from a retail high-end audio store (All Star Audio Video) in Houston when new - now it seems like the retail price for these is almost twice as much ($3,000/pair)?!

billybob Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Welcome to the forum! There is a new model IV recently. $800-1200 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 A pic of the veneer spot mentioned and labels on back will help valuate. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Gardner Posted August 13, 2021 Author Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) @billybob, good point on the additional photos. I thought of a photo for the veneer damage and took the photo before I registered, but uploads of only 2 MB per message (about the capacity of a ten year old iPhone photo) are allowed, so I wasn't able to upload the additional pics. The veneer damage is in the photo below, but a bit hard to see; as a crude, temporary fix, I "painted" the exposed wood with a black permanent marker. Thankfully, black is an easy color to match. I can't upload the label photos because of the 2 MB limit. 😂 Thanks Bob Edited August 13, 2021 by Bob Gardner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Gardner Posted August 13, 2021 Author Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) Label Photo (yes, the serial numbers are consecutive). Thanks Bob Edited August 13, 2021 by Bob Gardner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billybob Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Goo enough for now. Interested party's can always get more pics from you by PM after you post 5 times here. Hoping others will give you a price range to compare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Bob That would be per pair. Location, condition, and finish come into it. If selling, start a new thread here or other sites. Start high for patient sale, quick sale lower, typically speaking. Or adjust along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
