How can you tell? Those pictures are crap. Maybe he'll use the money from the sale for a better camera.

Although I have not heard that model of speaker, I can see by the pictures they do indeed look nice and appear to be in good condition. I'll bet you might be able to get the seller to come down a bit from his asking price of $100. :thmbsp:
Do you think their price of $100 is too much?

Not if the drivers are original. Too bad they don't have the classic white grilles and the Dynaco badges. The wood looks decent. These are great sounding speakers for all types of music.
+1, Eric has the value about right for average condition speakers. But in really nice condition, if the cabinets have been finished to a high degree, I'd probably go $90 but prepared to pay the $100. Hard to find Dynaco A25's, and usually the cabinets have not been cared for and dried out, stained, or worn.

It's all in the eye of the beholder. Personally I don't think his asking price is too much. How much enjoyment would you get from making them shine? Offer him less than the $100 and it looks like a pretty cheap price for that much fun. I spend more than that to take my family to the movies but it's your call in the end if it's worth it to you. :thmbsp:

Indeed! I got $300+ for a pair that I sold. I only did some mild refinishing and recapped them.

There was a pair of them here in Dallas a couple years ago for $100 that I passed on. They were really clean, but I just didn't need them. They can sell for between $100-$200, depending on condition... though non-original grills and other factors will affect the price a lot. I'd say $50-$75 is more than fair, assuming the drivers are OK.
If you check out my thread here you can see what you can do pretty easily with the A25s. Those dark covers look ok, but they look way better in a lighter colour.
