Either a joke, or an honest guy who pulled it to stop the madness.

Or he's checking Ebay right now because of the 438 emails he got in 15 munutes.

 

[StarMover]

Either someone got a score, or the seller realized what he had when the phone started ringing off the hook.

Look like the Granada's,notice the model #
N801- 8A

 

[Clmrt]

That's the XO part number. N = Network

 

[Sluggo]

I just noticed those numbers in the specs for the
Granada's in the speaker component catagory-

I was hoping to see a thread this morning from a
giggly AKer spewing his happiness over the new found Granada's,But alas,I bet those pros struck again
these guys have a intellegence officer called MOTHER
who scans all the CL posts.Locates the Altecs and gets
on the cell phone,Knowing it will take two people to
move them,Calls Smudge and Buster in the panel wagon.Their the closet members of the Speaker posse
gives them the address with cash in hand and their gone! O.K.,I watched the good shepard last
night

I talked about these Altecs tonight with the guy in my neighborhood while I was buying a Sansui 7070 that he picked up at an Estate sale. He said he was caller #8 on this deal, he talked with the seller, and he learned that the buyer drove up from Bellevue and paid him $250 for them - still quite a steal. :yes:

Still don't know who got 'em but a little more information. :scratch2:
