    I expect somebody has 'cooked' it. The good news is that the drivers are fairly common on eBay and usually cheap.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Dunno the driver number. Is it not on it? If not a bit of Googling may help.

    Nuts! Scruffy old Goodmans speakers. I think they're Mezzo SL and he wants £1500.

    I'd value them at £40 tops in that nick.

    not that I know anything about speakers but surely that's a mistake, if they were trying it on would they not have a BIN. I guess they needed top quality speakers to partner the top of the range system pictured.

    I thought these looked good value. Going to Edinburgh for the weekend and could pop over but suspect I wouldn't be able to bring them back as hand luggage.

    Look decent for money, but probably a tad heavy for baggage.

    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!”

    Yeah. It could be a mistake. Stupid one though.

    Those Goodmans Goodwoods are not a matched pair. One of the bass units has the vinyl 'skin' (which appears to be coming unstuck in places) over the whole cone and forming the roll surround and the other has a vinyl roll surround and a doped cone. Also the centre dust cap of one mid driver is pushed in, easy enough to sort though.
