I bought these from Mike and realized that they wouldn't work for my system. Everyone knows what happened when I decided to sell them in order to buy a smaller speaker system. Some of you think I bought these JUST to turn around and sell them for a profit. Not true. I would liked to have kept them but they simply were not for me. Since Mike originally bought them for $60 and tried to make a profit, I didn't think there was anything wrong with me trying to the same, as long as I kept the sale out of Club Polk.

In any case, I was wrong and would like to offer these speakers for $50. As large and heavy as they are, I'm sure you can understand that I can not ship these - must pick up in Warrenton, MO. Zip code 63383. Mike will have first dibs if he wants them back. He can also keep the Speckled King Snake and tank that I gave him when I bought the speakers. He's a good guy and I hope we can put this behind us.

    Damn...I'm tempted to go take a road cruise. I'm taking off in a bit to sell my RTi8's...I could cruise right on down to MO and snag these up.

    These would make some killer speakers for my garage rig...hmm...

    I sent Mike a pm this morning and have not heard back from him yet. Hopefully he's busy. I'll wait a little while longer to see if he contacts me. If not, comfortablycurt is first in line. Then Osarion.

    Okay, slight change of plan, guys. These speakers are going to be Karma'd. Look for the new thread shortly in The Clubhouse.

    Since Curt showed intrest first why not just give them to him and be done with the drama that these speakers have caused.

    Also Curt is a contributing member to this fourm so they would be going to a valuable member here.

    Just my .02

    Unnecessary IMO, but very nice move man. Welcome back, from one Missouri native to another.

    I'm ok with them being karma'd to me.;)

    Seriously though...I'd be glad to pay $50 for them.

    It'd be a couple weeks or so before I'd be able to take the trip down there. It's a touch over 300 miles between us, so it's a bit of a trip.

    Sure is a great set of speakers for Karma, whoever gets them is in for a suprise, these are one of my favorite older line RTi towers.

    Hello,

    I am driving up from Houston to MN for Christmas and will be passing through MO. I am moving back to MN and will be driving through with a trailor, could I pick these up along the way?? I am going back to school and these would be excellent speakers at a price right in line with my new college kid status. :)

    You guys need to look at the 'other Karma thread he has about these.
    He is keeping them.
