Is a used set worth $100? Local CL has a set and I don't know if they are worth that much...

    Assume they do not have replacement tweeters, if that's what Peerless refers to. Just wondering if he is asking too much or too little. I know they are worth only what I am willing to pay, but sometimes it is nice to hear opinions from the gallery. Thanks.

    I see them priced all over the place out here...probably 10-20 sets a year...anywhere from $40-$150 (not sure if they ever sell that high). I think $100 for mint 5s is a fair price. I'd offer $75.

    Combo rig:

    Onkyo NR1007 pre-pro, Carver TFM 45(fronts), Carver TFM 35 (surrounds)
    SDA 1C, CS400i, SDA 2B
    PB13Ultra RO
    BW Silvers
    Oppo BDP-83SE

    This is the "M5" that is a vintage polk right? Not a Circuit City version of the current R line that are also referred to as "M"
