Bargains on ebay?

I could agree with that & it does make some sense ;)

Unfortunately I don't think it's the case with this listing, you see I'd have expected it to be "revised by the seller" & this listing hasn't been edited in any way (as it always states revised if it has been).

Nice pair of NS2000 but again they are well overpriced :eyebrows:

It's a total joke, now i have to switch my feedback to 'private', why the hell do i bother being so efficient & Meticulous with people!..disheartening, but not the end of the world as ive decided never to sell through auction anymore.

Darn tootin, i'm convinced there aren't that many honest folks on ebay lately. Had 2 buyers contact me to claim items supposedly damaged in the post, i apologise and ask them to reurn for full refund (less their return postage) and then nothing more is heard from them. In one instance the buyer actually suggested that i just make her a 'gift' refund for her time and trouble and she'd say no more... effectively after a post-sale kickback. Again as an honest guy who likes a bit of box swapping this simply does my head in and i'll never sell via auction again.

Nope, not true, that only appears if the description is added to AFTER a bid has been placed. I've just changed on of my listings to double check this and as you can see the listing has now been cancelled just as I suggested (see I'm not just a pretty face)

Yet again you learn something new every day ;)

Have you seen this, still these things keep appearing in increadable condition, and the matching Preamp

I wonder what they will make??

Wow - amazing! £3k for the pair at least, I reckon - well, if I had the money spare that's what I'd be happy to pay.

:hmm: Hmm ... dunno! The synergy between the Para and my MBLs is very fine.

I'd like to try a Big Krell, though! :)

Nah - over-reaction, guys! ;)

IME 99% of eBay buyers are honest and sensible.

You'll get the occasional nutjob in any sizeable collection of people.
No big financial hits from the nutters, usually - just shrug your shoulders and carry on is my advice. :)
