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

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.

Offer $25k for the new speakers.

There's a little profit margin there for them to work with.

 

If it makes you feel better, those 50k speakers will be worth 30k after you buy them. Just like a 50k car after you drive it off the lot.

It depends on how much $20,000 means to you.... if it is nothing then buy new. If it is something then go look at and listen to them before you buy used. I've bought several used speakers and always worked out but not at the price range you are looking at.

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