I would love to have that BM2000 but I can't accommodate another Beogram (two, one still in box on the floow as I have no place for it), and I wouldn't dare to break this combo. 🙁

Or... ? ❓

I still have the original receipt from when the BM and the BG were bought alongside one another in a HiFi-shop in Schwäbisch Gmünd way back in the spring of 1975. Would you really dare to separate them? 😉

Don't really think so. 😳

Most likely I would stretch the limits of my home... again. 

But seriously, I really don't think I could accommodate those. Eventhough I would like to. Hopefully they will find a good new home.

How much would shipping to Melbourne, Australia be?

80€. This is real heavy danish quality, unfortunately. 😕

Now come on, you know you want it! You know you want that receipt that reads:

"Dear B&O-Friend! We would like to congratulate you on your decision, which has made you the owner of a B&O-component.

We thank you for the trust you put in us. We would be glad to prove to you that you made the right choice, and we will honestly try not to disappoint you."

Same thing is true today, obviously. 😁

And I don't really feel like putting it on ebay and dealing with the usual bunch of imbeciles.

You have this receipt in two languages?😁

No, I don't. I just thought it'd be better to translate it right away - before someone uses Google translate and ends up thinking "what the hell did B&O just say about my mother?!". 😁

Anyway, the system is still for sale. I still haven't been able to take decent photos or even put up an auction. Also, I'm not home most of the time right now and I don't really feel like dealing with people who expect me to ship to the other end of the world within 1 day. So if anyone wants this - get it! 140€. Last offer. I bought this thing for 100€ and it wasn't even working back then...

And...well, I guess it's not just me - but I think there are more and more people on eBay who just shouldn't be there. And it's getting worse all the time. Want an example? I was selling a Beocenter 3000 some time ago. The description was something along the lines of "B&O Beocenter 3000 - Receiver mit integriertem Plattenspieler". Guess what - some guy bought it for 35€ and apparently expected to get a damn Beosound 3000. For 35€. I mean, come on - there were pictures. Like, lots of pictures. Even an english description. And then, of course, there's the other thing. All my auctions end with "International shipping is possible. Just ask for quotes". The obvious thing will happen - some guy from somewhere far, far away will buy it and then be pissed at me because shipping is so expensive. As if it's my fault that he didn't ask or just look it up himself. I had that happen four times in the last months, and seriously - I'm getting sick of relisting things again and again.

Anyway, that was my personal rant on eBay. Hope you didn't get bored.  😕 Of course I've made many nice experiences with people who bought B&O stuff from me - but since many of these people are on this forum anyway, why not try to sell it here? Although it doesn't seem to work very well...

It is very beautiful....

dam shipping costs!!

(I'm still thinking about it though...)
