I think Fisher-Dave is trying to get some money together for those. Anyone want to buy his Fisher 1080? :)

[StarMover]

I'm only an hour South, so I sent an email to see if they are still available.

[techsui]

I wished I lived closer to Nashville and further away from the middle of nowhere.

[Nakdoc]

I'll help anyone, as I live in Nashville.

[bolly]

c'mon FisherDave!!!!!!!!! :thmbsp:

[analog addict]

CL listing gone.....

[StarMover]

I hope somebody scored.

[similost]

So what were they exactly?

[StarMover]

Seller replied that speakers were sold...

[radioactive]

so f/d did you get them?

[similost]

so were these A5? A7? Magnificents?... I hate when listings get yanked..

[Fisher-Dave]

... I hate when listings get yanked..


Me to :smoke:

[Fisher-Dave]

I replied when he first listed them,then a few more times as well. I was wanting to look them over and if all was well I'd buy them.Either he didn't like that idea, or they went to his spam box.Shame he didn't put a phone # in his listing.

[cabinover]

Maybe he was just fishing for interest? Next time you see them they'll be available for the low, low price of $850.00 or something crazy.

[70salesguy]

I have not dealt with this personally, but it does chap me when someone lists an item on CL at a lower than market price and when they figure out that they can get more $$$ than they were asking for, they pull and relist at a higher price!

Why not check ebay for a few days first and then price accordingly?

It would seem that if one was "computer savvy" enough to list on CL, you would know enough to check out the market price on ebay!

[cabinover]

'Tis but a guess as to the items. Maybe they did sell for the offered amount.

I agree though, no reason why you cannot do a little homework. I know what my stuff is worth going rate and fire sale rate.

[Fisher-Dave]

One thing I learn the hard way on our cl here is folks will give you the shaft in a heartbeat. I've bought several things said to be good but the sellers ask to meet in a parking lot rather than at their home. I stopped doing that cause so far only two items worked after getting home with them. I never got shafted from a guy willing to hook up gear before buying. I went to buy a set of large speakers for WhiteSE and the guy had them in his garage. I asked to hear them first and he got antsy.He then said ok I'll hook them up but one speaker don't sound like the other.It turned out the driver was locked up on one,no sound on that woofer either. I called Jack on my cell right there and asked him if he still wanted them and he said no, I better pass on them. I insist on hearing gear now,aint got the money or space for none working gear.

[StarMover]

Hmmm.. Seller replied to me that the gear was sold. We'll have to keep our collective eyes out for it to show up again somewhere. I'm sure the seller was blanketed with emails. Reply to me only included two words: "Sorry sold".

[Fisher-Dave]

Prolly did get alot of emails,but I bet I was the first,if not the only local the first day. I see alot get relisted here as it seems most don't care for old gear,or don't check cl one. I was looking through electronics,then went to car parts a while and clicked electronics again and there they were.Wonder why I didn't get the ok to check them out. I wanted to make sure they had org drivers,and worked.Oh well.:sigh:

[Fisher-Dave]

Wow! I could sell all my gear and just buy this for only 70.00 lol. 400 WATTS OF THUMP! Oh boy! Talk about saving a few bucks :D

No afilliation and all appropriate caveats.

[similost]

I'd pass.. I got a MUCH better deal, and no white crappy looking horns..

BTW Tom.. I did get that PM, just was WAY too busy at work the last couple days to reply.. DAMN COOL though!!!!

[Fisher-Dave]

I ask him for the hell of it just to see if they are the same ones.If so,and he's the same seller,he'll know ''there's a little click on the net,and we been watchin' folks'', lol.

[StarMover]

He could be someone who purchased them from the CL ad just flipping them to make an extra $1K.
