October 30, 200817 yr Those look to be a wonderful condition. Also the seller if very, very reputable as well.
October 30, 200817 yr I wish I can afford a backup pair. /dream With that said, it seems that the wooden cups and leather on this pair seems to be in a reaaaally nice condition
October 30, 200817 yr Isn't lobsterstan the guy from head-fi who runs that japanese auction site for headphones and stuff?
October 30, 200817 yr Isn't lobsterstan the guy from head-fi who runs that japanese auction site for headphones and stuff? yup. His name is craig, and he runs kuboten.
October 30, 200817 yr Craig is a great guy but the prices for the R10 are way out of hand. Have any of these people ever heard of speakers?
October 30, 200817 yr I think a pair sold for more than $5900 recently on headfi, so I don't think that price is out of line. That said, I'm not interested in a $6000 pair of sony headphones
October 30, 200817 yr How'd you do dat? Wish I could add infinity to my posts once in a while. start>Run>charmap in Windoze
October 30, 200817 yr not to hijack the thread but while we're on the subject of how much is too much, what is the max you guys would pay for the L3000? (I don't have one to sell or anything, looking to get one someday)

October 30, 200817 yr I haven't been watching out for them all that much, but it seems they are showing up even less often than usual on the used market. So that certainly influences price. I would say a completely stock L3000s with all the accessories might easily fetch around $2250 on the US/UK market and up to $2650.

I would say a completely stock L3000s with all the accessories might easily fetch around $2250 on the US/UK market and up to $2650. I've been keeping track and the demand has caused the price to rise in the last six months. They're now fetching about $2400-2500 minimum, with some willing to pay upwards of $2800-3000.
October 31, 200817 yr I think he just won that auction a week ago in yahoo japan. The winning bid price was around 480,000 yen. Very beautiful pair though.
October 31, 200817 yr Geez, 6k. I have no doubt that someone will buy them though. And the next pair is going to be more than 6k. I'll take my $1400 O2 Mk1, thanks. Even if the R10 was $1400 I'll still take the O2. But YMMV They do look to be in great shape. Hope the inside is as good as the outside.
