WopOnTour Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 This one looks like it should be in the Klipsch museum http://cgi.ebay.com/1-EARLY-50S-KLIPSCHORN-WOOD-HORN-WITH-KNOB-KLIPSCH-VG_W0QQitemZ130070736228QQihZ003QQcategoryZ50597QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Plus, Check out the guy's OTHER auctions. Assuming it's all legit there's some decent deals on McIntosh, HH Scott and other vintage gear. Some hobby WopOnTour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boom3 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 This is the one with the Leslie attachment for the midrange. Was probably used with an electric organ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seti Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 It has been on Ebay for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meagain Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 He's been trying to sell that thing for at least a year now. He has yet to try to drop that price. It would be interesting to see what the tally is for all those listing fees over all this time. I don't get it. He's local to me and has Want ads all over the place.

WopOnTour Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 Well that's maybe a bit suspicious (considering the large volume of top-notch gear he is offering, mostly at "fair" pricing). I cant see how some of that equipment isnt moving, so maybe it's some sort of scam? I find that unlikely as most of it is pinned at BuyItNow pricing with offers accepted so... I've been dreaming of those MC-40s, they sure look like they're in nice shape. WOT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mungkiman Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 That Shorty looks like a kit, with a homemade grill frame. Looks nice, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dp1954 Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 The guy selling these items is very proud of them. And at his prices he can keep them........ Dave check out the quads for genelex kt88's at 2 grand a quad... They'd probably make my ears fall off.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago_Pete Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 That dude has a pair of JBL Sovereigns like mine and wants 4 grand! I should e-mail him and see if he wants another pair for half that:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheltie dave Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 The dude is a greedy idiot, but he finds fools with a lot of money, and then repeats the cycle by finding stuff where the owner does not know what he/she has. His want ads are all over Craigslist and the Chicago papers, so he has lots of money... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meagain Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Not only that, but multiple ads with different titles, etc. I'm jealous a bit only cuz I want to find a McIntosh at a garage sale to see what all the fuss is about. EDIT: If you watch, most of his stuff goes unsold, but he scores here & there. He clearly spends alot on listing fees, but I just can't understand the refusal to lower the price on that khorn for all this time. I find that puzzling.

sheltie dave Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Lisa, he is getting recognition by marketing penetration. I never have even thought about buying something from him, but myostuff is as recognizable to me as goldbug or barrynsue, who also sell at stiff prices, but they do dicker, and they do sell ALL their listed stuff. The real advantage is when myostuff finally sells something, most likely it will be OUTSIDE EBay, and he instantly recovers costs when he discounts it by 10%. If you have the money and the time, then the market eventually will come to you. He has multiple storage lockers near you, and keeps the stuff in water/rodent tight sealed boxes. Sooner or later, some fool with money trots down his way, opens his wallet, and pours money out. Goldbug and BarrynSue take some time to clean their sales items up, and try to present them in a professional manner. They also work with buyers to ship properly, and educate the new owner.

Chicago_Pete Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Dave if you buy / sell enough vintage gear you start to recognize the players. You mentioned a few, aslater is another one. I have had nothing but positive transactions with Al Slater and Barry, both stand up guys. Myoldstuff IMO sells mostly beat to crap gear for outrageous prices.

JoeRiff Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 For that price, the thing should come with a Hammond B-3 to go with it and maybe a few Jack McDuff records for good measure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
