I'm in Europe, yes. How old are these, do they still have warranty? 75% is way too high unless they are like new and have 1 year+ warranty left that I can exercise internationally.

I bought them in late 2011, though I'm not sure about the warranty. Make an offer; I'm not in a massive hurry, I can bring them back here at Christmas.

Yeah, I don't think I'll come even close to your asking price, so chances are you will either sell due to my bump Wink or reuse them. Still, just thinking out loud here:

The B&Ws I can get locally for ~£500, and I see 2 ebay.co.uk auctions with bids, one for £52 currently (6d to go, but there's a dent) and one for £255 (3d to go, but stands are included). In the UK they seem to go for under £400 on the stores.
As for the Sonos amp, locally it goes for ~£425 and the cheapest I see it on ebay is £285 (3d to go, full warranty new in the box), cheapest buy now is £390, but that's a store selling brand new. I can get it on Amazon uk too, for £395 less VAT, so ~£330.

With all that, it would cost me £925 to buy in my corner shop, likely less than £750 in the UK. So my offer is £450 in BTC, shipped. If you can assert there is still some warranty left and I can verify I'll be able to use it here I may increase that value, but otherwise that's the very best offer I can make, considering the risks.

75% of new price for both. Where are you based? Shipping the speakers might not be economically viable, unless you're in Europe. The Sonos itself is kinda heavy, but small.

I'm not in the UK so I'll need things shipped. Also I'm mostly interested in the Sonos, although for the right price I'll certainly take both. Any idea on how much you are looking for?

I do and they're still in the UK. I'm in USA now, I'm sure we could arrange collection though.

B&W 685's, ebony. These speakers are awesome and multiple winner of Sound and Vision Best of awards.

Sonos AMP is a great little network controlled amplifier + music player.

I've still got the box for the speakers and probably the original receipt for both. They're kinda heavy; I'm happy for someone to come and collect (UK, GU31 area) / make me an offer for shipping.

Offers?
