    If you can't find any buyers, there are options.

    A freight company called Bax Global. I just had a pair of Innersound speakers shipped to me via Bax. They pick up at your house and deliver
    to the buyer's house (for an extra fee). My Innersounds were 6 feet tall
    and each speaker weighed 80 pounds. They came stretchwrapped to a
    skid in the standing position in perfect shape. Cost..... $120.

    Using your zipcode to mine and residential pickup & delivery and fully
    insured the cost is a whopping $147. All you need to do is get some
    bubble wrap and cardboard and wrap them speakers up. They do the rest.

    Just .02 ;)

    Thanks for the info. I just wanted my add to be clear that shipping was up to the seller. I'll certainly suggest this option if I get any bites.

    If you use Bax Global make sure you pay for additional insurance on the value of the speaker. I used them for a shipment dealing with where I worked for a third party shipment. The third party requested them as carrier. We just put the item on the pallet, secured it, and sent it on its merry way.
    Needless to say there was a mishap. We had not been requested by the third party to insure. Bax has insurance that they provide on the shipment. Well, Bax's insures at 35cents/pound regardless of what is shipping.
    They dropped an 800 lb cast iron mechanical comparator worth $12,000 and the third party recovered $280 an an apology based on .35/lb.
    Any carrier can have an issue. Take additional insurance!
