It asks more realism to the affairs of others. Never for their own. It is not strange? In my opinion they should not be allow comments on prices in the "buy and sell" section.
I do not I ever allowed to make comments on the prices asked by other forumers.
If anyone thinks that prices are high he can write in private or abstain altogether. I have always sold at a price lower than that asked why privately you can always come to an agreement. But I never sell those tubes and other material at 50 euro.

The auction looked a complete set of tubes, lenses, necks, six poles astigmatism rings and even a remote control. That may well be the case, but there really isnt a whole lot of demand for them, and that price is quite a high one. No one is picking on you here, but the fact remains a complete working projector is worth more than a set of used tubes in good shape. These tubes cant be used in a G70 or XG, both of which will blow any Barco 8" set away when set up properly. The 8" market is pretty near dead in the water and has been for a fair while now, they only barely do 1920x1080p and the difference in a 9" is easily noticable. The money youre asking for these could be better spent on a 9" set, because for what youre asking you could buy a 9" set and have all the same from the get go. The clear c-elements are worth very little, and if those lenses are the single focus short throw lenses Barco used on the ONYX, theyre not worth a damn really. |

Spoken without even knowing the material.
The lenses are HD117-24, focal double very rare and expensive.
No shit Barco Onix.
Now I ask the intervention of admin.

I dont see any issue with it, no one that may be interested in your items is going to care what other posts are made in your sale thread. |

Yeah but i didnt know what lenses youre selling. I didnt read it. And honestly, the fact youre not selling the single focus lenses you should be HAPPY that i indicate those are rubish, it further indicates that your lenses are the ones people should have. My comment on the clear c-elements stays though, the coloured ones make a fair difference. |

keep writing without knowing the material for sale. There are no c-colored element for Barco LC tubes with those plates. One more reason to not comment.

I do a bit of culture on that, instead you, I know very well: for the LC tubes that I sell there aren't colored c-elements.
To bypass the problem, users must change the plates with diy plates that combine colored c-elements from Sony G70.
Of course they must use the G70 lenses with adapters.
The only fully compatible lenses are the HD117's.
There are two types of these qualitatively exceptional lenses. HD117-12 and ultra rare HD117-24.
Both are 1: 1 throw distance.
12's types are for little screen or rear projection.
24's are for normal frontal projection.
Giaky looking these lenses but it is literally impossible to find them.

It is irrelevant and was not the point im trying to make here. The housings are not what is worth the money. Clear c-elements are not the best option for home use.
Im sure you have seen the difference in contrast and colour reproduction quality on your 9" when using colour filtered c-elements.
Personally, i would rather a slightly softer focus and significantly better colour any day over razor sharp at the cost of having orange reds and pale greens. The colour purity is far more important in movie watching.
Question for you, and answer honestly:
Would you personally spend €500 on upgrading an 8" projector when you could spend simular money and go to a 9" projector that is better in every possible way?

They are opinions and as such are lawful. But it is not the right section. It's like walking into a store and tell people that the material for sale is too expensive or is out of fashion. Surely the shopkeeper will not be happy.

Surely the shopkeeper will not be happy. The shopkeeper in that case should take it as helpful and honest advice, if indeed the shopkeeper wishes to have some form of continued and profitable trade. What you need to look at here is that no one is doing anything wrong by you. It is quite the opposite. You have been politely informed that youre selling equipment that is somewhat out of date, and that your asking prices are such that a person could actually buy a better 9" machine with lenses and tubes better than those youre trying to sell. 8" is dead, and regardless of how rare a set of 8" lenses are, theyre never going to be worth nearly as much as a complete 9" set, and this is what youre asking. With these lenses fitted, itll still only be an 8" Barco, and no way is that worth even half of €500... |

If you are intellectually honest now you must to go into the Curt's forum and must write that the friend of Gregstv is selling tubes to twice or triple what they are worth.
Rather, since the 8 inch projectors are not worth anything in your opinion, you must to write that the forumers who wish to buy those tubes are stupid people.
Since as you wrote actually it's possible to buy Marquee 9500 at 500 bucks, already you're there as well write in Tim's topics that is selling tubes at a price six times higher than the real worth.

I didn't buy these tubes as I think they were too expensive once you added shipping. As far as I know they are still available. They are NOS but what is a set of 8inch tubes really worth these days? |

These tubes are in Malta, Not my tubes. I purchased splitters from this guy and he sent me the list of CRT parts he had. |

this is a ridiculous paradox: in another forum you selling tubes that you think is not worth anything, but obviously do not write over there. Then come here to say freely that my tubes are not worth anything. Tell me that I' m inside a nonsense movie please.
Now you must to go in your post and write that those tubes don't worth anything.

Sorry gregstv I thought you wrote something about my tubes, but no.
However, you can write your opinion about this discussion.
