These are quite sought after by some. But a grand of my cash would not be going in that direction, that's for sure.

Tannoy DC3000 speakers at £400! That's more than twice what they're worth. They're not very good.

To me that says they aren't worth the asking price, don't get me wrong they're a nice pair of speakers, i had some Sony APM speakers in the late 80's, hence my interest, but even then they weren't £1000 pair, i'd pay about £200 or £300 max, just cos somethings rare doesn't mean it automatically should be worth a fortune.
Some pretty serious money being asked for vintage Decca FFSS cartridges these days.

That's probably a tenfold increase in five years. Mind you, they are scarce and in sound terms maybe worth it!
