No affiliation. Nice, big bux again, not that I'd know about 19s value.

On the High End of the market, No Foam around the horns, But show Real Nice.
All the Veneer looks Too Good!
All Ceramic Magnets,

On the upside, they have the optional risers, and are the less common walnut.

Still seems a bit steep especially for ceramic.

Those old capacitors are TRASH. Surprising that they're not recapped.

I have all components and controls to make a pair of 19's, but would need to construct cabinets to create some. Currently too big of a project, maybe in the future.

Here's another Pie in the sky price from the same seller.
I just sold my pair 4350 A's, Real nice,
with the correct elect X-over here on Bartertown for 11. Da!
Although there were 2 other people that wanted them.

Every item they have listed on the auction site is a "we will set a new market price" attempt.

I like how he points out that before you make an offer, there are taxes, and ebay fees that he must pay, and this is why he has to price them so high.

Wah. Your cost of flipping isn't my problem.

$15k for a 50-year-old pair of Altec Nineteens? I've had 'em and they're good, but not that good. They were great for their era and they're great for $4k-$5k, ...
