Hi matador, 

So these prices i mentioned before seem ok for you? What do you think of the overall condition of the pictures I attached?

Merci

Average price for BL8000 is 1000€ (from 800 to 1200). Never less and they're all MK1.

Being in France too, I agree with matador.

I got my MK1 in Switzerland for about 850€ but I had to take an Avant 28 DVD + an Ouverture + two Beo 4 with them. I could have tried selling those extras to lower the 8000 price, but at the end of the day I’m having fun with them 😁

IMO It is important to listen to second hand speakers before going for them

Yes they're close to what I see everyday on "Leboncoin".
Regarding the pictures attached, I only can see a scratch at the base of one cone and maybe some transparency in one cloth (maybe the light).
If they are between 500 and 700€ i would pay attention to them as the defects are quite minor (maybe the scratch can be polished). But as someone already said, it's important to listen to the speaker at least to test for distortion or vibration. Also check serial number and do a search for foam rot. If any speaker is concerned you'll end up having to dismantle the whole speaker at the best so better to be warned.

The one at 750 is sold by a vintage hi-fi shop which claim 12months warranty.
