Original no-suffix 40-2039 Minimus 7W with the walnut veneer front

[VA1DER]

I'm fairly comfortable with the value of good-condition Minimus 7Ws, these seem to go from anywhere from $70-$150 a pair nowadays. But I'm curious what sort of premium the rarer originals (with the Walnut veneer front) command over later Minimus 7Ws.

There's a pair for sale on eBay right now for $90USD. Guess I have my answer. I also have four myself so someone else may want these.

I have two pair of the white Minimus 7 with PZ 2.1 Mod crossovers. One is part of my bedroom system, and the other isn't being used. These are very sweet speakers.

I just bought a pair off of eBay for $62, although $20 for shipping and $6 tax and the total was near $88. The seller didn't realize they had the veneer front though, as I had to ask for photos without the grille on. I thought it was a good find, they are in near mint condition and really nice looking. It looks like the current going rate for the normal 7W with black front is around $70-$100 or so.
