great speaker buys on Craigslist

CL is a hoot. It can be very entertaining taking a look now and then as the above examples show.

Here are just two of my favorites:
(insert well known brand name here) RPTV for sale - $400. Paid over $3000 when new. Works great!
I wish I could reply to this type of ad - "I would be happy remove the 300 lb beast from your premises for only $40.

But my absolute favorite was someone looking to sell his $500 Best Buy gift card for....you guessed it, $500! At least it also said, "can meet you at store to verify amount".

And they're serious.

Marq, no brown, no dice. ;)

I suppose if Apple were marketing this stuff the tagline would be: "And now...even bigger!"

Seriously, when are we gonna start seeing speakers sold by the pound? I think these guys are on to something.

Two more I saw this morning:
"speakers so awesome, come on by!
I've got a set of sharp, three way speakers, 300 watts, bookshelf size, $70. I've also got a pair of tower speakers. They are generic, but look nice. $20. I'm moving in a month, better hurry I'm in a wheelchair now!"

And then there is "A pair of floorstanding speakers with a subwolfer". I bet those really howl! Funny too, I've never seen that pair of bose floorstanding speakers. They are pretty tall and boxey for only having what looks like one 2.5 inch driver.
