Stolen property
I'm interested in buying.  
Use escrow service to pay for speakers?
Audiogon . Feedback is not always a reliable resource, I've heard. I have not registered with Paypal. In fact do virtually zero online banking. Hoping to pay by a secure method. I doubt individuals use cards? Will check that, thanks.
