Why so many B & W Speakers on the used market?

I live outside of the Denver area, so my Facebook Marketplace (among other sites) draws from the Colorado front range cities. So why do I see so many B&W loudspeakers being up for resale? Is it just that Listen Up has been a dealer for decades and the market has sold so many previously? Or is there an inherent problem that wears thin on the listener that they seek something better? I mainly see the 700 series, in different sizes and series, but CM9's etc. I'm just curious b/c I plan on moving to a new house in the next year and want to have a dedicated listening room, hopefully under $10K for the source, amp & speakers. I already have a nice analog set up to incorporate into it.

I worked in listenup for several years, selling a ton of B&Ws as it was their primary line forever. Many many speaker lines are a little tipped up in upper freqs. Many many customers like that presentation. Others don’t.
 

None of that has anything to do with the number of speakers on the used market. As always, it’s best to go listen to anything you are interested in.
