[yellafella321]

just thought I'd share

http://cgi.ebay.com/Grado-RS-1-Headp...QQcmdZViewItem

I'm not associated with the seller, thought about getting them myself.

Kalas seems to have a rotation of Grados on sale on ebay.

how do we know it's new

thanks i'll do a search

He's legit. His name and sales have been brought up on the forums a couple of times now.

Search for "Kalas" and you'll read other impressions.

These do not have Grado Warranty Support since they are being bought off of eBay.

For $625 you can get them from an Authorized Dealer with Warranty Support. Just ask.

It's important to know the market to some degree when buying an item of this value. When I see used RS-1's in the For Sale Forum for $550 plus shipping I just shake my head.


$550 is a good deal for a New Pair of RS-1's.

These are a Godsend for Canadian/international headfiers. We don't qualify for the warranty anyhow.

I bought my SR80s from him.

As far as not having a warranty that's a risk you take for the lower price. Although if any problem doesn't show up right off the bat when you get them it probably won't show up in the regular warranty period even if you had one. You could always send it to grado and have them fix it. It think it all evens out in the long run.

EDIT: Guess someone snagged em right now.

Well they are both gone now. I guess he got some good free advertising.

Don't worry about it.You just might get your chance here in the for sale forums as some might dump their RS-1 in the coming month.

 

[saturnine]

Don't worry, the seller will list a few more for sale eventually

You can always email them and ask about reserving a pair.
