The review from 20 years ago was very positive about them for the price. The CS350 is what makes it a good deal, imo.

"Polk Audio RT35i Bookshelf Speakers in Maple Veneer, New Unopened Box"
Rare MAPLE veneer! lol
-
I personally have never seen a Polk speaker in Maple.
-
I guess they're rare. Still the asking price is way too high.
-
He has them and others on the auction site as well.

^^^^^^^^^Not your usual Sally Ann offerings and both pair look to be in very nice shape. Obviously they're not looking for a quick sale.
-
Price seemed high IMO. Then again, I have no clue on vintage klipsch.
Used gear seems to be going for crazy prices anymore.
One thing I've noticed at SA is whoever makes up the listings usually takes lots of pictures,
gives the best description they can, and most items are actually tested to some degree.
FWIW, a few years back I bought a vintage receiver off them. I had a few questions on it's
condition. The guy got right back to me, gave me a phone number and answered all my question.
He suggested I spray the pots with deoxit as they we're scratchy.

I sold a pair of close to perfect walnut khorns from 1989 a couple months ago for $2,300 and even at that price it took some doing. No doubt being smack dab in the middle of Tightwadville New England didn't help my cause.

Tax write off (scam). They hand you a slip, you fill in amount..... it just became a 10K+ speaker.... you do not get the slip if you sell them yourself. -
Tax scam probably, really hard to say.
I do know of a guy, who's "unusual" girlfriend donated a bunch of his stuff to a place that was
already sold when he finally figured out where she took it.
I've always wondered where the other gear that had to be a part of any certain set of items, amp, receiver???
The one's at SA look in much better condition.

I've seen quite a few high end amps on Seattle Goodwill's eBay store in the past, but store pickup only.

Yep they had some high end Gryphon audio class A mono blocs a year or two ago. I too questioned at that time who in their right mind wouldn't try and sell them first before dropping them off at GW or SA.
When I dropped off a ton of old clothing at GW of my fathers after he passed and the lightbulb illuminated for me. Mom just donated 5.6 million dollars of dads old clothes.....

^^^^^^OMG having owned a 2285 I'm thinking one person is smiling from ear to ear while the other person has far more money than brains.
-
No doubt.
I have a 2385 sitting in the closet doing nothing.

Money laundering....

Maybe the Goodwill store manager was trying to bait a bidder to bid higher and higher.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.
