As I mentioned before, I'm trying to help a lady sell off her late father's equipment and it's turning into a chore. I've listed a couple of tweed 115E Peavey cabinets which sound great but weigh a ton and nobody wants to pay shipping. Also, there's a pair of Peavey 115 International PA cabinets with Black Widows and horns - same story - too heavy. Guitar Center won't buy them 'em because they're passive and I really don't want to deal with Craig's List crazies. Also got a Peavey XR600-B PA head built into a road case that I can barely lift. It's all good equipment but is pretty much in the dinosaur realm. I'm thinking of parting out all the cabinets, selling the speakers & horns and trashing the cabinets - it would be a shame but it's looking like the only practical way. IS there still a market out there for Peavey 15s? There is very little music going on in this area and no bands to sell it to. Any suggestions? HELP!!!

| Talk to Jonny Bondz (Bondz music in Wildwood). He is a PV Dealer and takes consignments and maybe an alternative. He gets his cut if sold but one way to go. |

Thanks, Jack - I may do that with the PA stuff. I've got some interest in the tweed cabs so I'm waiting to hear on them. Getting rid of this older heavy equipment is a pain in the wazoo!

I've used CraigsList regularly, and never ran into a lunatic, but have no doubt they're out there. One suggestion is find a friend who would post the items for you, who wouldn't mind screening out the crazies. Posting is free, and you get a wide audience, but you're likely to need to haggle. Just add 20% and list "Or Best Offer" (OBO), and expect to have to cut the price. Best of luck.

Doug, in our area there is a high percentage of weirdos and my wife doesn't want them coming to the house. We found a steel friendly store that will do a consignment deal.
