Speakers--2 Altec / Western Electric 728-B; Goodmans; ATLAS Tweeter

[Bunnyslipper]

I'd appreciate any input as to what these might be worth?

2 Altec / Western Electric 728-B 12" Speakers. I think someone mentioned they are going for $1200 or more?

ATLAS Tweeter HF-1 [mono] in the original walnut cabinet. Can't find any info. on this.

Goodmans AXIETTE 101 8" & 15" MONO Speakers in original enclosures. These might also be called an AL 100 Speaker System (Audiospeaker Laboratories). Can't find much info. online about this system.

All were in good condition before being stored away for years. Thanks for any info.

If you're willing to sell on ebay and ship overseas, you can probably play in that ball park all day long.

But, do consider that these delicate and aged items need careful packing considerations such that they can easily be opened and easily repacked safely by customs agents.

The only way you get to keep the big money is if the buyer gets them in the same condition they were represented in.

Sage advice bowtie. One would do well to heed it.

Okay, thanks. But can anyone give me any info. about them and/or price info. on the individual speakers?

Bunny, here is some info found in a three second search...ie, [Edited by Moderator] it would be better for you to do your research. It isn't too difficult.

As far as value, every sale is an outlier. They are few and far between. Take good photos, stick in lots of information, and good luck!

Cool link. I don't have any but it was a good read.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I should have been more specific. I had already found out about the 728Bs. I actually have the original data sheet for them. But I still don't know a good price range for them.

I have a spec sheet for the Atlas HF-1 "High Frequency" Tweeter & Dividing Network but again, have no reference(s) for a value range.

And I have the spec sheets for the AL -100 Speaker System (which has Goodmans in it). Again, I can't find any references to a price range.

It looks like sheltie dave already gave you the information you are after. There are no or very little price comparisons to work from. The best course of action, assuming you want to maximize your sale price, is to follow his advice. A well worded auction with LOTS of high quality pics and a willingness to ship overseas will yield the best results IMO.
