I was bequeathed my late uncle's Polk Audio Monitor Series 10 speakers, with stands, along with his other equipment(ELAC Miracord 50II, etc.). I already have some KEF 104/2 towers. Looking to possibly sell the Polks. Market value? Serial numbers are 176624 and 176628.

    OP, if you want to know the market value search eBay for past sales to get a better idea.

    I'm in South Jersey too and I've seen 10's going for $100 in working but poor condition to $250 in near-perfect condition with upgrades.

    $500 is way steep and probably at least $200 over reasonable pricing.

    The majority of good condition examples with stands would be in the $150-$200 range.

    Ebay monitor 10's that sold were between $150 to $300.
    Realistically expect something between those two numbers.
