I want to buy new speakers for 50,000 and see it used for 30,000, what should I do?


two issues here, would it be smarter to buy the used speakers not knowing where they’ve been or how hard they’ve been played or maybe there’s something wrong with them. And the other issue is what happens to the value of my speakers immediately after the box comes to my house. And I guess the third issue is, amI insane for buying $50,000 speakers.

It seems like I’ll be losing $20,000 immediately and of course probably a little more since if I ever sell they will need to be reduced further so used price can be 30,000 if a dealer is involved which they probably will be.

This raises a serious concern that very nice speakers are just too expensive.

Fortunately (and luckily) I’m not married so that makes this process a lot easier

Purportedly is the key word. I always wonder if a lot of members in this forum talk a big game with no skin in it.

What I’m surprised at is the number of people still treating this as though it’s a serious thread. I admit it was entertaining for a while, but even that’s running thin at this point.

You people can’t help yourselves. Read the entire thread before posting. You might decide it’s not worth your time.

Shaking my head that people still don’t get it. A real gullible bunch of sods around here.

Notice not once was the question of "what do you have now?" or "what are you looking for?" was answered.
 

Good reason for that I’m sure……

Don't worry folks. No 50K speakers will be harmed (or purchased!) due to the results of this thread.

 

It's what most are to each other around here, more or less strangers, so that's just the terms under which we mingle. Nonetheless we should be able to gain from the experience and opinions of others.

Understood. And that is usually the premise we all operate under. But I think the OP is being disingenuous by starting a controversial thread only for the sake of making some arbitrary point and not to seek actual advice.

 

 

Well good. More of you should act like you "get it" instead of feeding the troll.
