Struggling to spend 13k with three dealers

Is anyone else running into this? I've been trying to buy a used pair of Wilson from a couple of dealers in the NY area and from one in the Chicago area- each has a pair I've been interested in yet all are super slow to respond to emails, quote a final number, give a clear number on a trade I have etc. Each have their own wrinkle, high shipping charges, high pick up charges, avoiding doing a set up etc. Super frustrating - I've literally bought a car faster than trying to buy a pair of used speakers. I've thrown in the towel after a month of endless emails and conversations. Weird. I used to run a retail audio chain. We chased every deal, quickly determined if we could do it and made it work- or nicely declined the deal. Is business so good that there's no interest in selling 13k speakers that they're holding in inventory?

Miracle is a noun. He used it as a noun but (intentionally erroneously) failed to type "it's a miracle".

Unless it is Certified Authentic, no WATT/Puppy 8s remain under Wilson Audio Factory Warranty.

That said, using a speaker in the environment you describe does not necessarily void the warranty. However, any failure or damage that can be attributed to the issues caused by the environment would not be considered manufacturing defects and would not be covered by the warranty.

Lol, since you only have 3 posts you may not know that anything tubebuffer says is a joke. Like literally this is an old probably white dudes alter ego at an attempt at humor.
