SilverSport Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 some of us saw them at the Pilgrimage (unless it was another pair)...we compared them to the Belle that was there was well...SWEEEEET! Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I'll take that back, there was a single Walnut LS II sitting in Engineering by the Belle Klipsch in oak/cane. We must have had the Cherry tucked away somewhere. It's the same cherry as in the RFx3 series. Couple of chips in veneer on the back corners was all I could see that was wrong. Happy Bidding!

Groomlakearea51 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Wow! I'm the high bidder at $2502, but that will last about an hour or two.... I drove to Fort Wayne to get a MINT pair of K-Horns, i can always drive up again for these (provided that everyone on this earth gets amnesia and I win.....)

hygog Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 given the potential historical significance of this particular pair, ie the very first pair / presented in an exhibition - i would not be surprised to see this going HIGHER than retail.

Groomlakearea51 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 http://cgi.ebay.com/Klipsch-Heritage-La-Scala-Floorstanding-Speakers-BK-PR_W0QQitemZ220127534607QQihZ012QQcategoryZ378QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem So where are they, New York or Puerto Rico? Plus payment in Euros? I would think scammers should be a little better than this. They're in the trash bin now.... I nailed the fraudsters this morning via eBay's Security Department..... Took about 10 minutes on the phone with eBay's security folks. These scams are originating somewhere in Great Britain; emails are usually always "somebody @gmail" See a good deal? (1) Check seller's other items; generally you will see about $50k worth of high end stuff; usually always listed at the same time. (2) the seller usually wants you to email them...., and (3) the ad's use of english grammar is usually 'strange'. INTERESTING NOTE: Suspicious? Also, check a seller's feedback. The hackers can't access and change that. If they sell "religious figurines"... (as was the case this morning...) then it's likely someone has hacked them. They've been busy beavers.... I've nailed 4 this week; one on the LaScala's and three on some high end amps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwc Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 That remains a secret but....you guys were bound to lose as my wife walked by the computer screen about one hour ago and said...."Hey, why don't you get those".
