Condition of speakers


Has anyone ever bought a pair of monitors on this site in "mint" condition, but when you get them, the bottoms are all scratched up? Do you even care? Nothing makes me more mad ..and I have learned to ask to see pics of the bottom of the speakers before buying. I don't understand how hard it is to lift the speaker up before you put them on the stands and move them around. Especially when there are spikes on the top plate. Or better yet, use some kind of padding in between. I have received speakers in the past that look like the person was chewing on the bottom of the speakers with their teeth it was so bad. Or it looked like the speakers were dragged around on concrete. The worst thing is when you message the person about the bottoms, and they say "who cares, you don't see it". Anyone ever have this issue?

If you really care about what the bottom of the speaker looks like, and that is your right of course, you should have asked the seller for pictures of the bottoms before you bought them, and the problem would have been avoided.

Viridian,
Simple. Because a picture is worth more than a thousand inaccurate (or dishonest) words.
Roxy54, Ive learned to ask to see pics of the bottom of speakers. I just don't like asking, because it makes it sound like I'm too picky. I just feel like if you are describing the speakers condition, it should included all sidesÂ….
I can truly say I bought a pair of mint AP Steps here as described by the seller and Audiogon 10/10 rules.
A pair of AR 7's where the vinyl was in such good condition I could have thought it was veneer!

Best,
