Craigslist, Seattle smattering ...

[Charivari]

No reason to be jealous, Bolly. The Seattle Craigslist is horrendously hounded by resellers, so only a fraction of the goodies posted on it ever make it into the hands of those who'll actually hold onto the goods and enjoy them for any length of time. I've been quite lucky, but my success rate is around 10% and that 10% only of the lower end deals and from the time before the resellers ruined the list.

[Pacopico]

...at least I won one on CL in Seattle.

A pair of ADS L-810's in good condition (great condition for drivers, etc) at @$220.00 the other day.

Im going after those Maggies now, but probably am too late :tears:

 

[Charivari]

Good luck on those Pacopico. I would've snagged them myself, but I didn't want to try the pass, plus I couldn't spare the time.

some of you Northend guys should check this out. quoted from the ad;

"Vintage Analog Receivers. several high quality vintage analog recievers from the late 1960's through early 1980's. These recievers have been professionally serviced, cleaned-up, and extensively tested."

Little slow there, Dingus. Already saw it, contacted the guy, and heard back. Here's what he had to say:

Right now I have a Kenwood KR-3090, a Pioneer SX 525, and a Magnavox Stereo 500. I'll have a couple of Sansuis soon also. I was planning on pricing each of them depending on condition, power, quality, etc. These are all going to be $75 to $100. I'll work on taking pictures this evening, but they're all in good shape cosmetically. Let me know if I can give you any more information. Thanks.

Too much for my cheap blood, but may be just the thing for someone looking for one of these rigs.

Little slow there, Dingus.

i been busy.......

thanks for the info, nothing there that trips my trigger.

 

[Charivari]

You mean people here have lives outside of the forum? :scratch2: Bah.

nope this is strictly AK related, just taking a breather.

Pioneer HPM-1500 - $350

 

[Charivari]

Update on the vintage receivers ad. (No affiliation nor interest in any item, just wanted to provide some follow-through).

I'd like to get $100 for the Kenwwood and Magnavox, but I'd take $75 for the Pioneer (it is missing a button, although in my opinion it has the best sound of the three.)

 

[Charivari]

Altec Lansing Santana II - $150

After some thought, I've decided that I'm willing to help ship out any of these finds (within reasonable size) to those from other regions who really want the item, make arrangments with the seller, and cover the cost of materials and shipping (and gas if necessary). Just allow a couple of weeks for me to get over to Seattle and the packages together.

[Charivari]

Not Seattle, Portland, but that's close enough. Not a score-grade price, but fair price for some excellent speakers.

Magnepan MG-1.6QRs - $1200

Now, there was a listing in Seattle for a stack of gear including a cosmetically mint Pioneer SX-939, all for $40, but a friend of mine is on the way to pick that up as I type. :thmbsp: Though, he's keeping the 939. :nono:

[dingus]

this could be worth looking into.... http://seattle.craigslist.org/ele/116782165.html

 

[SPL db]

It's sure a good thing that I don't live in Seattle! :yes:

I'd spend my whole paycheck on Craigslist! :sigh:

i called the guy and will be going up to check the stuff out on Monday, cant get away any sooner. he says the pic's only show a "portion" of whats available.

 

[Charivari]

Holy ....

Wish that was a pic of my place. Well, actually no, that's too much, far too much. Anyways, I'll be in Seattle for Friday evening and night, want me to stop by and check anything out for you? I can then haul it down to the meet.

That goes for the rest of ya out there, if anyone gets ahold of this guy and makes some arrangements, I can pick up the stuff and haul it down to the Saturday Portland meet.

Man, wish I had a truckload of disposable cash.

well since my coworkers blew my Yamaha CR-700, i'm in the market for a cheap, $50 or less, yet nice sounding integrated or receiver. will be pairing it with a pair of Large Advent Utility's and figure 30wpc or better will do fine. if he has anything that would fit that bill then by all means yes! plus if you scout it out, that will save me a trip on Monday as well.
