It's just good old market forces at work. If they're over-priced, they won't sell. I don't see that the motive for the sale comes into it, really, though a good sob-story might help push the sale along.

...be interesting to see what this 'nothing special' pair go for by comparison:

Just to say I picked these up for the study system. They sound great! Actually a better match for the small room than the JPW P1's I've been using (which need a recone - I might even have a crack at that myself, the surround are only about £12 off ebay). I haven't unpacked the stands (they disassemble) but will tuck them away for possible future use.
Not DCs I know but they have a charm about them and bags of detail. I'm very surprised for under £60 posted.
I was looking for a 2TB hard drive to back up my music library when I came across http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3218653295...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
The seller seems to have mixed up his 1TB and 2TB price I reckon. So grab yourself a bargain if you are looking for a bigger portable drive. I bought one already.

Numpty selling system. He says the amp is 400 watts. Well it is, but that's the mains rating. It's probably about twenty watts output. What he doesn't realise, is that the speakers are made by Isophon and have super quality drive units in them and are worth more than he's asking for the lot.

It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
B&O Bang & Olufsen wall clock. Not strictly Hi-Fi, but really nice. Classy item!
One for Adam (Beoman)?
