I once won a pair of Mordaunt Short Pageant 2 for £2.70. The cabs were slightly tatty. But the drive units were mint!

But surely there comes a point where you say 'That's it. I've got enough stuff. Now I can just listen to music'?

It's not an illness. An illness is cancer. Or a bad cold. This is a hobby, and a man should have a hobby.

I’ll second that, I just like playing with the stuff and also admiring the build and design. I also like getting bargains, Oh, and I love restoring unloved kit.

Most men follow some sort of sport. I'd class that as a hobby - or an interest.

It’s also,a hobby that rewards knowledge. I’ve got the best sounding system I’ve ever heard and because of buying bargains it’s cost me nothing.

You got any links with Liverpool or is it just about the football? I supported Spurs as a kid because they payed the sort of football you’d pay to watch. |

Goldmund RCA interconnects - 250 euro new from manufacture - 1168.00 Quid on ebay. Clown says they are designed for a Western Electric Amplifier.
Let us not even go into the silly prices they ask for Western Electric stuff on ebay.
Jensen PA speaker x1 - 5,850 Quid.

I bid on a gold bracelet today and here is this numptys description: Yellow gold metal bracelet not tested or checked however does definitely look like gold but can’t confirm as have not tested it.
He listed it a few days ago and the bidding rocketed up to £11.00 so he ended the auction early, then relisted it again immediately. For the last 4 days it has sat at £7.50 so I bid £35.01 and won the auction. Obviously this wasn't enough for numbnuts so he has cancelled the sale. The feckin refund is going to take over a week to clear FFS, yet the money got sucked out of my account immediately. Ebay is really getting on my tits right now 
It's not my fault he didn't put a sensible starting price or a reserve on if he thought it was real gold, or better still had it tested. Twat.
