Authenticity of Speakers

Thank you @viridian 
Yeah, that is true. He says, these are brand new and I convinced him yesterday to to $400 for a pair.

When you say that the price is high considering age and provenance, I checked Klipsch site, and these are not yet discontinued by Klipsch, first built in 2014. Do you think $400 for a pair is still not a good deal?

Don't be suckered in by what you think is a low price. Something smells fishy here, so proceed with extreme caution.

$400 seems reasonable if they are in good condition, or brand new, $350 would sound better, of course. That brand new bit seems a little strange.

I do take seriously the warnings of our fellow hobbyists, and the warning on the Klipsch site, which is rather general and not specific to your model. So I would propose a little, simple, test that might set your mind at ease that the speakers are genuine, though it will not speak to the condition of the speakers at all.

Get the net weight of the speakers off of the internet. Take a bathroom scale with you and weigh the speakers. On the off chance that someone in Asia would counterfeit them, they would probably be well light of the actual weight. Just my 2 cents.

Most importantly, these are high production speakers and it will be easy to locate another used pair, if not in your locale. If you even have the slightest doubt about the transaction run, don’t walk. You will have other opportunities.

Thanks a lot @rlb61 and @viridian 
I will check-in for the sake, but will probably pass on as it looks like too good of a deal.

Thanks again.
