Found this on Craigslist in Seattle for $550.00. The following is what is in the post if anyone is interested:

Re-posted due to "buyer" flaking and not showing---gave him THREE chances to get here and now he wants "just a few more days..." so PLEASE, if you aren't going to show, don't say you are...thanks!
Original owner. Has been in storage for past 20 years, and selling due to upcoming move overseas. Recently cleaned, serviced and checked for everything being in spec---passed with flying colors (had extensive upgrades and components replaced just prior to being placed in storage in 1995) and is in excellent cosmetic and operating condition. $550 FIRM.
OK, have had tons and tons of questions, so will answer them here rather than play email tag with half a dozen (or more, lol) individuals. Actually, for the price and condition I figured someone would just come see and hear for themselves...guess not.
YES, I have all documentation for ALL of the work done in '95, which included all new CORRECT output transistors, two higher capacity capacitors (yes, the BIG ones), an active speaker protection circuit, and some re-routing of wires and improved solder connections over what came from the factory....oh, yeah, and all new meter lamps.
YES, I have all documentation for recent cleaning and testing, which showed this amp to put out 465 watts per channel into 8 ohms at clipping, and all other measurements are within (actually, MUCH better than) factory specs.
NO, no additional photos, as I have re-packed this back in the factory carton awaiting its new owner, and I am BUSY readying for a major move. NO scratches, NO dings, NO dents...NO disappointments. If you MUST have a better look at this, just come and SEE it!!! If I take the time to pull this back out of the box and set it up for better photos, then at that point I'm just going to list it on eBay!
NO, it is not currently hooked up to listen to, but if you want to come and look, read all the documentation, and then connect it to YOUR source and YOUR speakers, please feel free to bring those, as all my other audio gear has already been sold. NO tricks, NO deceit, NO lies...NO disappointments.
ALSO, upon cleaning out my closet I located the cabinet for this, which has been sitting un-used in the box since I first purchased this in 1974, as the shelf I had the amp sitting on had just enough clearance for the amp itself, and the cabinet would not have fit, so I never even unpacked it.
AND, I have the original optional Phase Linear cooling fan and installation kit for this as well, but it was never actually used either, as I never drove this amp hard enough (always connected to a pair of super-efficient Klipsch Klipschorns) for heat to be an issue.
Any questions other than, "where are you?", "when can I come buy it" or the like I will consider as just a complete waste of my time and will get no response...I hope you can understand THAT, lol.
