Iteachstem Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Hello all, These are posted for $300 in Elburn, Illinois. I message asking about the visible mildew at the bottom and the overall condition. He said they were in very good condition only a small issue with the passive radiator. I offered $200 pending in-person inspection and he agreed. I showed up and they are absolute garbage. Water/humidity damage, so much so that the cabinet seems are clearly separating. Mildew. Several gouges on the cabinets. One passive has a rip. 2 of the 4 drivers have messed up dust caps. I asked if he was willing to work on the price and he totally blew me off and said these are nice speakers. (Again, making me thing what do people consider" not so nice" condition.) If he would work on the price, it might be nice for some spare parts...however, you have to take into account the environment these speakers endured over their lifetime. I posted this so that you have more details if you are local and considering buying these. I hope this helps. I will never get back the 45 minutes it took me to check them out in person. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Thanks for the heads up. At least the name (Sanford Abd Son Junk) fits the seller well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iteachstem Posted June 20, 2023 Author Share Posted June 20, 2023 Sure thing. I told him if he lowered the price to $100, someone would buy them for the parts. Well, that afternoon he lowered it to $150. Then, later he lowered it to $100. I saw this morning that it's gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
