Markl's R10 was sold at $4200. I'm checking reality.

Who's the rich and famous one ended that deal ? Any head-fier ?

 

[tottiflames]

eh~~
$4200 ！！

Good grief , I knew the R10 were highly sought after but thats serious money...

Well at least thats not the $6000 that last pair or two sold for.

Yeah, When i first saw $4,200, i was like, "wait, isn't that a little low?"

jk of course =)

the box gets you the last 2k. i wonder if he was disappointed with that price. i bet an interest check here would have snagged more.

It's a fair price for such a used pair, almost all of the last pairs sold on eBay or Audiogon were NOS or in excellent almost new condition.

 

[jgonino]

Ah yes, i forgot they are used. Thats how it should be. Buy headphone to listen not collect.

Yes. Check the first post.

The last batch of 100 R-10's were sold for $4200 in 2003-4.

Compare that to a $600 HP1000 currently being sold for $1400-$2100 used, and a $15000 Orpheus system being sold on Ebay for $25000 plus $700 shipping. $4200 for the R-10 is fair in this supply and demand market. It is not an inflated price.

the price is high...but very fair considering this is not a mint pair...honestly if I had one I'd use it everyday and take it with me everywhere i went (yes...in a messenger bag...with other stuff)... because if I cant enjoy my music on the go (where i listen most)...whats the point?

 

[immtbiker]

The R-10's are not an "on-the-go" headphone. There are dozens of headphones that suit that purpose better for a lot less money.

well, if they were sonically in excellent/mint condition, then $4200 seems like a very good buy.
