    FS: 78 Cornwalls (CWO) Price drop to $500

    Sold or otherwise disposed of.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Champagne in one hand - strawberries with whipped cream in the other hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming YEE-HAW What a Ride!"

    Thanks!!

    You'd think that someone who makes his living with computers (MCP, MCSA, MCSE, CCNA, A+, N+) should be able to figure something this simple out wouldn't you?

    I've got the La Scalas hooked up at the moment but it would be easy to slide them back in to place for an audition.

    Mapquest says you're an hour and 45 minutes away from them.

    Re: FS: 78 Cornwalls (CWO) Price drop to $500

    It's funny (OK.. not really) but I bought the La Scalas just knowing that I'd be able to sell my Cornwalls quickly. Two weeks later and not so much as a nibble. What's up with that?

    I know the used audio equipment market is pretty "soft" right now but come on. When I went on the hunt for Cornwalls at around $500 or so I was always the 2nd or 3rd responder even though I emailed the same day I saw the ad.

    Unless the employment situation improves dramatically and very soon I'll be posting the La Scalas for sale. I'd rather lop off an apendage than part with the La Scalas but I very much doubt that my mortgage company will be quite as impressed with them as I am. :(

     For $500, these should be gone. I'm on the other coast, or would be tempted, even though I have no more room for speakers.

    Good luck with your sale, and congratulations on the La Scalas.
