Anybody want to drop $11k to a guy with a 0 rating and got his neighbor's wife pregnant? C'mon, I'm sure he's legit.

Has to be the best ever "reason" for selling an audio product on AudioGon. I love it!

Couldn't he have found a discreet woman with Quads?

I don't get it. He has to sell the Vandersteens because he got the neighbor's wife pregnant, but then all will be forgiven and he can buy the Wilsons? What happens next time he does this? Will have have to trade in his Mercedes for a 7-series BMW?

Mr. theRed, don't mind these goofballs. I see you're serious, and I'll take them.

Note I will pay via a check written on a bank in Nigeria, and it is for slightly over your asking price. Just remit the remaining $740,000 to my representative here in the United States. Please provide me your home address so he can come to your home and deliver the check and pick up the speakers. He works long hours so he can only come there after 11 PM; hope that's ok.

Has to be one of the most original reasons for having to sell any piece of audio equipment!!

Maybe he needs the money to bribe the hitman hired by the woman's husband.....

I guess it takes all types to make the world go around.

"Besides I have to sell them because I got my neighbor's wife pregnant. I have an opportunity to pick up the Wilson's Maxx II speakers. I don't want to get rid of them, but here you are."

Ok. Maybe he's offering everyone a chance to solve a riddle.You know, like, I am the father of my sisters son and the brother of my uncles father so what am I, sort of things.

Maybe he's his own neighbor and it's his wife that's involved and the new Wilson's are just part of the deal.

"I don't want to get rid of them, but here you are."

Ok. I'm stumped. I swear I was no where near this guy when he posted his ad. Weird. I swear I was asleep in bed that night.

Or maybe he's thinking there's an annual Audiogon non sequitur contest.
