I was watching this auction but had a bad feeling about it as the seller had a zero feedback score and I vaguely remember seeing a similar pair of KM56's on eBay a year or so ago from a similar seller also located in Poland. www.ebay.com/itm/262573193056Either someone got an absolute bargain or not. Of course these can be a risky purchase unless one can be sure the nickel capsules and AC701's are in decent condition.

Nothing against Poland but east Europe is known for scams in Audio Gear.

Okay these sold twice already for the original starting price but were then relisted even though the seller doesn't show a minimum buy price. They have now sold for a third time higher than the starting price but still cheap for a pair of KM56's www.ebay.com/itm/262589380779Either the seller won't accept the price and just keeps relisting them again or it's a definite scam and he's trying to bypass PayPal after the auction finishes and is insisting on a direct money transfer which scares the buyers off. I'm guessing the later as I figure he has probably received several offers via PM's to end the auction early. My money is it's a scam and he'll keep relisting until someone transfers him the money directly and then he'll disappear.
