I absolutely meant no offense. I don't know Jeff Behr, or Asylum at all...so I was just speaking in general. "Divorce" and "widow"-sales are common scams, on Craigslist and such. You've seen the ads: "don't know what this is...it was my late/ex husband's; it's really heavy and says Krell on it"...lol.

Plus...I've been trading used gear for quite some time...close to 10 years or so; granted, probably not as long as some of you...but I've NEVER seen a deposit ahead of local pick-up. But I'm obviously glad it worked out for Joe...and jealous...and again, didn't mean to disparage anyone personally.

Joe

Great Joe; all is right with the world. Now I'm beginning to wonder if I should have bought those speakers in the White Van?

Chris,

I almost blew it off myself, but have been rolling the dice lately and all I say is, 7 come 11, baby needs new shoes. Boo Ya!

You are correct in being cautious. I see the aftermath of "bad deals" in my line of work and it's not pretty. So, trust but verify.

ps Stay away from the white vans, no matter what!

Joe

That is kool. no problems at all. I would not have posted it here if I had any doubts in my mind.

Anyway, all good for Joe

Cheers

I'll have to ask. I don't think so.

Joe...great pick up. I will also be in line if you decide not to keep it. It may make sense to have it sent to CJ to have it checked out if it has not been used in 4 years. Enjoy it
