edited July 2009 in Speakers
I came across these speakers about 3 weeks ago and was surprised to see they were only $800, now it is even better. I wish I had the money to buy these myself as the guy only lives about 20-30 minutes away from me. They look good in the pictures provided and if any is intrested I can go check them out in person to verify that they work since he still has them hooked up. He is moving in 2 days and needs to get rid of them, he is only asking $595, but I called him today and asked him if $500 cash would be enough for him to part with them and he said "Yes" I have no affiliation with this guy at all, just want them to go to a good home, since I wasn't able to talk my wife into it. Only problem is the logistics of it all. I would be more than willing to check them out, pick them up and even deliver them for a fellow Polkie if it is local and the buyer has no way to pick them up. Shipping would be another story and I have no idea how much that would cost, but if anybody was intrested in that, I would be more than willing to help. Lastly he has an intrested buyer in Tacoma (about 4 1/2 hrs away) and he doesn't want to have to transport them there if he can sell them locally. This has to be done quickly though as he told me that he was going to call that guy at Noon if he didn't hear back from me. BTW it is a Craigslist ad in Spokane Wa. here is the link.....

    i'd def jump if he would ship and was not on craigslist. really need the Rti series. Wish there was someone closer willing to part with some RTis..

    Edit: just read the entire OP's post.
    Can you please ask if he'd like to separate the RTi12s? If so, can you please let me know how much would shipping for the RTi12s be to 11355? You are very nice to help out fellow polkies :)

    Nice of you Jeff to pass this along.

    I just wanted to say that Jeff is already helping you guys with this post and offering to ship. You dont want to complicate things for him by asking if the seller will sell only the center channel, what the shipping will be.

    At this price, you can get the center for free, buy them, sell the towers.

    I am moving out of my place in spokane tomorrow but will be in Kennewick, WA for the weekend if that makes it easier for anyone. It's a 3 hour drive from seattle or vancouver. Also, I priced out shipping and it looks like it's going to be about $215 for all 3 speakers. that means $815 for excellent condition RTi12's and a CSi5. This is an amazing deal... Please someone buy them!

    Get out of here with that spam, and no that website doesn't have good prices. Best of luck to the seller of these speakers, that is practically giving them away and I'm surprised that nobody has bit yet.

    I'm really surprised that nobody has bought them yet. I figured people would be banging at my door to get them. Hey Jeff... why don't you just buy them from me, use them for a couple weeks why you sell them and turn a small profit? LOL.

    We are moving out of our place in spokane and going to be visiting family for a few weeks around the northwest. Then the 1st of August we are moving to Milwaukee, WI. They won't fit in the space we have right now on the moving truck, but we can purchase more space to move these for $125. How far are you from Milwaukee? This might be an option if you are EXTREMELY INTERESTED. I will not have room for them in my new place so I would only move them out there if someone was willing to buy them right away.

    Nice deal. I'm in DFW currently looking for a couple of floor standing speakers and a center. My receiver isn't a monster, however. It's a Harman Kardon HK AVR 254.

    And to think I lived near Seattle not long ago... :eek:

    Yeah, sorry about that, I started this thread before he joined up. I was trying to help him sell them since I couldn't buy them myself and he is local to me. Not trying to break the rules, I was hoping it wouldn't cause any trouble when he came in to the convo.
