This might already have been posted somewhere but i bagged myself a set of B14 PSS9 on ebay and as far as i can tell its a super deal.

I offered £500 and he countered £550!

Thanks for the link. My Weitecs have died and this is the perfect replacement.

I normally subscribe to the school of "if it seems too good to be true it probably is" but this is a German seller (they normally are incredibly honest) and even went to the effort of emailing me separately (not through eBay) to thank me for my purchase.

Hopefully they'll arrive later this week and I'll be able to confirm it's not a cheap Chinese copy.

If there's any left when you do confirm I will be dipping into savings! :D
