Vintage Monitor and SDA Speaker Deals

Wow I did not realize the stands were in the deal too. It's got to cost him $60+ to send you all that.I asked him about it and he assured me he would. He did say he was having problems finding the interconnect cable, not a big deal to me as I have a couple.
He also told me he had the stands and would ship separately at no additional charge??
Sounds good, we will see.POLK SDA 2.3 TLS BOUGHT NEW IN 1990, Gimpod/Sonic Caps/Mills RDO-198

Yea those are the same speaker maybe two different mounting methods from previous ownersI don't know that these would be a "deal" but ... In a recent thread I talked about a local pair of CRS+ that had my interest but which had bolts out of the backs for some reason. That listing came down, sold presumably, before I followed through, which was fine. Now here's a pair with bolts out of the back of at least one of them ...
http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/ele/4272638317.html
I don't think these are the same speakers as the earlier pair had three bolts out of the back of the left channel and only two (with a third hole, apparently the old IC jack location) in the right channel. There's only one photo of a back with this listing but it has three bolts in the right channel. Also no mention here of stands, which were included in the earlier listing.
I'm not going to be pursuing these but I'm going a little nuts trying to figure out these bolts, haha
Here's the right channel from the earlier listing:

edit: Looking more closely I'm seeing similarities between the right channel speakers in both photos, aside from the third bolt - the markings and dings around the edge and what appear to be two smaller drilled holes ... something smells a bit off to me here.POLK SDA 2.3 TLS BOUGHT NEW IN 1990, Gimpod/Sonic Caps/Mills RDO-198

Is this a potential red flag, perhaps not originally a matching pair? "Serial # on back L-SDS-SRS 3493 and R-SDS-SRS 4286."
And I notice there's not a single photo showing both speakers, nor anything to indicate all the photos weren't of the same single speaker.

Not uncommon for the serial #'s not to be in sequence, if fact I think it's more the norm for them not to be in order. -
Can you report any chance to buy a good pair of SDA 2.3 or 2A/2B (however any good SDA model) in Europe, please?

I would think that would fall on you to do YOUR homework for that area. Many of us do not check the European Craigslist or any other. As another poster told you before it is HARD enough to get them here in the Good OL' U.S. of A. -
SDA 2.3 TLs are one of my dream speakers and I really want to get a pair one day as, from all I have read, they are one of the best-sounding speakers of the SDA line.
A pair was recently listed on ebay, no affiliation, and the seller is not too far from me...but price seems extremely high...even for 2.3 TLs...and I also do not like the tiger maple wood he made for the end caps (maybe looks better in person, who knows?).
Here is the link if anyone is interested (and maybe seller will negotiate on the very high price).

I am 99% sure those are a forum members. There was a guy on the forum here (musky1963) that did woodworking and made these special for CP members.

I agree. Do people just hang on to their gears or there is nothing worth selling? However this is a second time I see another pair of 1C Studio for sale for the last couple of months. -
This guy is still trying tounload a bunch of stuff including the 2Bs. This ad has been running for ages now and clearly getting no action on it. He should more than likely part it out.
