Hey guys,
I'd like to gauge opinion here on what AKer's would reasonably be willing to pay for the following items, a matching Pioneer SA-8500II and TX-8500II, based on the description given by the seller and no way of verifying the validity of the description (the pictures accompanied by these quotes were only of the front of the units. No interior or close up shots):
For the Integrated amp:
First response about the condition of the amp:
"Like I said, The Sa-8500 II I think just needs a good solid cleaning. Sometimes it comes on where you can hear it, sometimes not. May be a dirty power switch or something, plus the usual dirty contacts. I really dont know."
Then when I asked for more specifics:
"As for being more specific about the (pioneer) sa-8500 II, it will power up, there IS audio on both channels, so the amps themselves are good... but you have to work with it a bit... and then the breaker kicks in and out sometimes. its pretty dirty inside admitidly, so I believe thats the main problem. It just needs a good solid cleaning. But thats just my guess. Some of the knobs are scratched a bit also."
and then the Tuner:
The first response:
"The matching TX-8500 II tuner I works, but I think it just needs a cleaning aswell."
Then when I asked for more specifics:
"As for the TX 8500 II matching tuner, Ill have to dig into it a little bit and see whats going on.. may not be anything wrong with the tuner.. havent used it in a while. But it has strong reception."
Again with what the seller has responded to my queries what kind of offer would you make on these items? What would be a reasonable price based on the above information from the seller?
Thanks
Ryan
