God knows - I never intended to sell them in their present condition. I started the thread to ask if they were worth fixing up and selling as they go for 900-2000€ on eBay which is silly. Or whether I should just bin them as I don't really have the time to do them justice.
Some members asked for photos.
If anyone still thinks I should sell in their present condition please give me an idea of what kind of prices are applicable - I'll then decide whether to sell them as is and post them in Private Exhibitions.
This not a sales ad.

If you don't need them it's best to sell them as they are.

No, I won't use them. Ok so what kind of price - I honestly don't know!
If I put them in Private Exhibitions can I say open to offers or do I need to state a price?

State a price but can say or near offer, to be sent via private message. No bids. Pictures must also accompany it.. no building up offers either

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

In my opinion. A fair price might be £100 to £150 for a scruffy pair with stuffed drivers. They will after all, require a fair bit of work and expenditure.
You do need to quote a price for Private Exhibitions, but you can ask for offers around a particular quoted price.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

It's not my intention to build up bidding - but I need some guidance re what to ask for... Maybe someone could PM me with a ballpark figure?

Martyn's a good and fair person to do a deal with on selling them and he understands the 'philosophy' of the BBC legacy more than many. Both Alex-UK and I have bought stuff from him and he's honest, meaning that any offer he makes for the remains of these LS3/5A's will be a fair one.
Thing is, NO LS3/5A from the early days will be 'quite' what they were when new and Doug Stirling has tested many pairs and found them all wanting according to a friend of mine who bought some non 'BBC Licenced' V2 equivalents from him, so even working ones may need a little work to bring them back to spec - heck, it was bad enough when they were brand new I remember....
Tear down these walls; Cut the ties that held me
