Nature of the current used speaker market

What do you think of the current market for used speakers above the $6,000 price point?  It seems to me like the market is soft, really soft, since I keep seeing the same speakers posted for sale over and over again by the same seller.  And these are top flight speakers from solid manufacturers such as Focal, B&W, Rockport, Sonus Faber, etc.  Does this mean the number of audiophiles and audio enthusiasts is on the wane, or is there just a glut of used speakers for sale out there?

I was just looking through the Classifieds here and saw some great deals on speakers over 6K. I almost wish I was in the market instead of finished with my Audio buying as there are some mighty tempting speakers listed.

Your post reminded me of the Vandersteens next to a 'Vintage Porche'.
I wonder what happened to them? After a year or two, I stopped following.
