Need speakers picked up at Skip's house and transported to Lawton Oklahoma looks like about 179 miles one way and for your trouble I will give you these Polk speakers pictured.
Sorry but there are no ID labels on them. I got these speakers from my brother yesterday all I needed were the surrounds but he was tired of looking at them and cut me a sweet deal. Cosmetically they are living room presentable with minor flaws here and there.....Scratches on the plastic legs, minor grill pulls, your typical stuff.
I could make the drive but thought I would throw this out there for fun.
Must be someone people here could vouch for. Counting my pennies it looks like it will be this Friday before I can pay for the speaker I'm buying from Skip.
Skip if this is not cool with you let me know.ktgasamk4wb7.jpg

    They appear to be a pair of RTi8s and the big matching center - CSi5.

    Nice deal for someone in the DFW area with a little extra time on their hands!

    Oh I forgot to mention I have something tall round and fuzzy that does not have a power cord that will make the trip back with you if you have the room.

    These would cover my expenses getting the Signatures to you. Let me consider it and see what I can do with my kids.

    Hey bro I have no problem driving to your door next Wednesday and picking up what you are holding, I'm in. If the road warrior in you wants to make the trip bring your kids and take them out to the wildlife refuge to see some buffalo and other critters.
