Hi guys,

I have a pair of Beolab Penta MK3'S ca 1997 - 1999, bought them used back in 2000 and gave about 2500 euro for them back then. (equal amount in Finnish marks)

They are very little used, and are fully working, one of the speakers has a small hole in the net, and the usual problem with the settings cover at the base of the speakers getting the push-lock broken.

I'm thinking of selling them, I used them at my parents home when i still lived "at home", and they don't use them, so it's kind of sad just having them in storage... What do you think they are worth today? I haven't seen a MK3 pair for sale in Finland for a long time, and don't want to give them away for free.

A pair was advertised for 1,200 for a long time, still a couple of weeks ago... dunno if anybody bought them, the ad has disappeared. Currently nothing even approaching a four digit price seems to move over here...

Thanks Mika,

I haven't seen the ad for those... I sold a MK2 pair in 2003 if I remember correctly for 800 or 900 euros, but they wasn't as nice as these.

OK, thinking about letting them go, but for 700e it better be a local deal and pickup. 😂
