If anybody has a pair they want to get rid of, let me know. A pair in cherry would be great but any finish will be fine. Thanks

    Where are you? I've got a pair of black RT800i I'll probably be getting rid of, but I think shipping would be a killer on these. Are you anywhere near the northwest?

    Southern Indiana. Zip 47126. I think shipping is usually around 150.00 for them packed in big seperate boxes with plenty of packing.;) Give or take a few dollars. I would be willing to pay shipping providing the cost of the speakers were reasonable.

    I can check into shipping and packing (don't have any boxes).

    The only imperfection that I've found is a decent size chip out of the rear side corner of one cabinet (concealed with black by previous owner). What would you consider reasonable?

    $200.00 tops given the chip and the cost of shipping. I paid $300.00 for mine shipped. 150 for the speakers and 150 for shipping and they are in mint condition. If you are interested lets try and find out what shipping would be and go from there. I am also talking with another fellow polkie with a mint pair that might be wanting to sell also. Let me know what you think.

    I think I'll have to pull mine out of the running then. I paid more than that for this pair as they have quite a market in this area (the rt800 go for $250-300 and rt800i for $300+).

    Thanks and good luck in your search.

    I did not realize you had the i series. I agree those are worth more. how about you give me the price you would be willing to take and maybe a couple pics of the speakers. I hate when somebody ask me what I think is reasonable. What I think is reasonable and what I would be willing to pay are two different things. I didn't meen to offend you, shoot me a price and some pics and lets go from there.

    Seems to me you are speaking out of both sides of your mouth.
    Anyway, I am in Indiana and have a set of mint black RT800i's that I may let go if the offer is reasonable. What is reasonable to you will likely be insulting to me. So, tell me how much you are willing to pay for a MINT set of black RT800i's. Thanks.

    I don't even know what that meens but any way $400.00 would be the most I could put to together at this time. Is that a insulting offer:confused:. Please let me know.

    Go for it steelervic. Nik, though your offer wasn't insulting... it was not attractive enough either. Thanks anyway and good luck in your search!

    not offended a bit...

    Mine are not nearly as minty as rskarvan's (saw those when I was looking - very nice), but they are definitely still decent (chip is only 3/4 inch along back corner with small scratch extending onto the right side).

    I'd probably want to get closer to $300 plus actual packing/shipping. I'll see if I can get some pics of them for you. Check out steelervic's as they are much closer and would save some $ on shipping.
