I noticed that there is quite a few Polk R 50 speakers on Ebay suddenly. Anyone know if these are really Polk speakers or some bogus company putting the Polk name on them. It seems to me they are all only in the Cherry cabinets. Did this wood color not go over or any rumors of logo rip offs?

    Just remember "ebay" doesn't sell _anything_ , they only list sales for a _seller_

    Who is the seller? That is your question.
    Harman Kardon AVR-435 Receiver
    Polk RTi6 (L/R) CSi3 (Center) RM3000 (SL/SR)
    SVS 25-31 PCi (Sub)

    Most likely it's a matter of sellers trying to make a quick buck on speakers they bough rediculously cheap on outpost.com

    outpost was running extreme sales on the entire "R" line, and many were sold in a short time. I have a pair of R15's here that I bought for $50... couldn't be happier! A lot of people bought them just to turn them around and make a few bucks. They are likely the real deal, but as with any sale on eBay, choose your seller carefully.
    Ludicrous gibs!

    ... but know that you will have no warranty as far as Polk is concerned.
