I have to say this photo pushed me over the edge...........I'm buying this piece of gear.

just in case here's a better one that will seal the deal too!

    If a guy sees an ugly/big girl and thinks she looks good when he's drinking...........does that go as well when an audiophile sees this?

    Agreed H9. RIP simple common sense.
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Why even post that photo? Makes me think the seller is an F-tard and even if I wanted that particular piece I wouldn't buy it. I just don;t get some sellers...........I really don't. He paid $4 to list that ad and probably had to pay extra for a 2nd photo. :rolleyes:

    I think it's a snapshot of a passing UFO. It looks about the same resolution as most UFO photo's.

    Hopefully I'm never drunk when someone offers me their amp and it looks good (in my eyes I see blue lighting so I'm thinking Mcintosh), and it turns out to be an _ _ _ _ _ _ _! :p

    Wow...that's stupid. Who in the world would give her $500, when she already says she won't go lower than $450?

    I'd offer $350 and see if she bites...lol

    True-one can hope.

    OK, so here's one I just saw listed (This is the entire listing):
    Two Polk Audio speakers in ok condition..

    Chips on a few sides. And and two speaker stands.

    Best offer or first offer. Needs to go immediately.

    Like how in the heck can you make an offer for a complete unknown. :confused: For all I know these are $2 computer monitor speakers. Sheesh. I sent an email asking for a tad bit more info. :rolleyes:
