    You could get these for $90 instead of coming on here and trying to lowball.

    Damn sorry I offended you sir with my offer. I already have 4 sets that I use for my overheads just needed 1 more set and I got mine originally for a lot less then $100 from an AQ rep. Just not in Contact with the good person anymore. Again sorry for the offensive offer and in the future whoever the cheerleader is that mentioned I was trying to lowball you could please mind their own business. If their not your cables please keep your comments to your self. Thanks

    He was right. An offer as low as that should have been sent privately or not offered at all. The man just lost his job and even though you lost your "hookup". He is not the one to take advantage of right now. Move along...

    Thanks for hanging up and how am I supposed to know his personal life. I made an offer publicly. It sounded like the gentleman was needing to sell the cables and I’m willing to pay $100 be it low or fair is for the seller to decide not his gang. Anyway they are just rocket 33 cables and I apologized if my offer was offensive. I just joined the forum yesterday to make the offer hadn’t spent the time to navigate it yet to send PM’s to anyone. Good to know how this place is and the people who that are on here. Good luck on your sale sir and sorry to hear that you are affected like everyone by these hard times. To the rest of the people that speak for you same goes to you. Enjoy your day I will leave this alone.

    An established family member that was perhaps down on his luck and knew the seller? Eh...

    Here are the facts. Retail price - $340.00

    Original asking price - $250.00 shipped

    Dropped to $175 shipped

    Offer? $100.00 presumably shipped.

    $20 bucks to ship? $80 for a pair of $340.00 cables in excellent shape.

    __________________________________________________________________________________

    Hmmmmm....You have a home for sale and times are hard. You paid 340K. Put it up for sale at 250K to liquidate. Dropped it to 175K and someone offers you $100K plus closing costs and Realtors fees on your dime?

    Now, the offer came without ANY knowledge of the sellers conditions but still. While everyone is looking for a good deal? Damn. 80% off of retail for an item in excellent condition? How would you feel if this was the case with your home?

    And in today's world? It could happen to almost anyone in the next couple of months.

    Okay. I'll shut up now.

    Honestly I’m sorry I participated in this at all. Is there any way to have an admin please delete my account on here? It would be much appreciated. Again I have never paid retail for any Audioquest so my apologize again to the seller and the seller only for this. I guess offering what I felt is fair Price for used cables of this class on here is a crime. I run a loom of Audioquest Wild blue yonder speaker cables and XLR using fire Xlr for the surrounds and Atmos. I use the Rocket 33 to go from wall plate to McIntosh amp only so it’s not a big deal to me their just cables and my very last time apologizing to the seller for starting all this. To much time on our hands is not a good thing. Please is there any admin that can help delete my account. Thanks for your time and all of the nice comments from everyone that chimed in on a classifieds sales listing.

    I would like to thank you guys for the kind words. In these hard times especially for me like many out there. I'm not the only one who lost their job with a family of 4.

    I will go $160.00 shipped. I will keep them for any less than that. I'm the original owner. Shipping costs are very high right now. Not to mention if you can find another exactly the same condition set online for less then I say grab them. They are excellent cables. But you also have to factor in the shipping costs.

    Anyway I wasn't offended by your offer Bensjamin, please stick around as you can clearly see we are a tight bunch and have known each other in here for many years.
    Our Members are the best.
