Got_Horns Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Starting a thread for any good deals that for whatever reason fell through. We can pass tissues and hugs.  I'll start with today...I was 2nd in line for a pair of klf 20s for 100$....I'm 🤢 over it. I even tried bribing the seller with more money, but he honored the initial buyer.  ..............

Peter P. Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 While I can't recall specific deals, I've always wanted to ask the question-do you often feel like you want to be a Klipsch Savior? Â What I mean is; you see Klipsch speakers on the secondary market at a good price and feel you want to buy them for no other reason that the price is good? Of course, you'd wind up with more speakers than you could possibly listen to. Â While I haven't succumbed to the urge, I continue to surf the popular web sites just to see what the good buys are and I'm while I'm tempted to buy, I live to close to common sense! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like that towards most quality things at a good price or deal. But I'm am tempted a little more for audio deals. This deal hurt me extra. Because I have a pair of klf 20s already. I could of used them for surrounds or made a center channel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, right? I felt obligated because it was such a good deal.  I even banned myself from doing the usual "Klipsch speaker" search.... That didn't last long  If you could have seen me walking around my place, with a damn tape measure...was like, "well I still have a path over there...if I just move that...I could".. it was ridiculous.  It's a sickness and I need help.😆  Just waiting for a new member to pop up with the. "Got a great deal on some klfs" or the "what year were they made" thread. To rub it in. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 It was about 12 yrs. ago, so it would really make you cry. I don't actually remember the price. I was hoping JL would chime in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping JL would chime in. Yeah, so a guy posted those Belles on Facebook or Craigslist and a flipper type guy bought em for I think $800.00. A week goes by and then he posted em for sale asking like $1,500.and I called him and said that he just beat me to them and that I wanted those for myself. I asked what would be the least he could take and if I recall correctly, I paid him $1,200.00. This where it gets good. I've really enjoyed them. They are the best speakers I will ever own and the most beautiful speaker design Paul ever made in my opinion. All that to say: Marvel, if you want, you can come get this speakers for what I paid for them. I haven't seen a pair of solid Belles on here for that kinda money in a looong time. Anybody else interested will have to pay $1,500.00. Which as we all know is a deal. There are pictures of them on the forum. Don't know if I can find them, but I could post new ones I guess.:) Â 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 That is a generous offer, but I'm not really in the market for more speakers. Working on a project now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
