Dave here, from the old Delta Car Audio stores from the 1980's. I still have 11 amps from the Tampa auction left; see list below or go to my web page https://eds-inc.com/car amps/ to see pics and detailed specs.
All used, refurbished, come with warranty and can be returned for refund if not happy as long as you didn't blow it up doing something stupid. Prices are negotiable, they aren't doing me any good just lying around in my shop. I am retired from my car audio stores and just dabble at auctions looking for things to do. As an accredited CET I am always happy to repair anyone's amp, and with 50+ years of experience nothing surprises me anymore. Here is what is left for sale:

Surprised at the lack of interest. Shame to just throw out working amps, but have to make room. If no interest by end of April, will throw out all 11 amps in the trash. -Dave
 
Kind of a peculiar for sale thread… I’m not sure what throwing amps in the trash has to do with it. The thread looks like you are selling amps for various price points. Which means waiting for a buyer and or lowering prices until someone wants it.

Besides that, I just seen this thread today, so unfortunately it takes time for people to see, that might be interested. If you were going to throw them in the trash, post them locally on offerup or marketplace or craigslist, even ebay and you would have them gone within a day (could even list the whole lot $100 and probably get that to someone that resells on ebay). If trying to sell them individually, well you’ll just have to wait for a buyer at your prices, as the stuff is fairly basic stuff at upper end used prices.

I use to repair amps and sell them, buy them non working and sell on ebay, so that is my suggestion if you are trying to sell these.

And that “Unknown red stripe "1000W Max Power Digital 4 Channel Amplifier" is the “DUAL” brand, which will have little to no interest selling for $125. Amps like the Dual I wouldn't even bother repairing as they only sell for about $30 $40 when I use to do it, not worth the time or parts invested.

OK, been out of this a while so I didn't realize the low worth of these amps. I put hundreds of dollars of upgraded mosfets in most of them so i was just estimating what they were worth by doing research and getting list prices. Hate to lose my cost of parts but half a loaf better than none, so anyone interested, name your amp choice and price; buy two and I'll pay for shipping.

Do you have the plate cover for the Boston Acoustics ?
 
I already showed pics and specs of each one with links to my site and I have been doing this probably years before you were born (since 1976). Just Google my name and company if you want proof of integrity. I take insult here so no sense trying to help anyone out on this website. Everyone loses here since I just take the loss and chalk up wasted hours of my time and cost of components rebuilding perfectly good amps that go in the garbage. And eBay still owes me $230 from damaged units that THEY shipped and I had to pay the customers out of my pocket. Done here, withdrawing my posts.

Rules of selling here are pictures with username with items that are for sale.
You really going to get offended by asking you to follow a simple rule?
 
Dave, it sounds like you are an older dude.
We have to be weary of scammers. They are everywhere on the internet.

If you can post a picture proving you own these amplifiers it will greatly increase your chances of selling stuff.

Take a youtube video and post the link here.
You have options. It would be great if you are legit.

The name and date in photos next to the item has been a thing on forums when selling for like 20 years. Don’t become hostile over it, it’s just a safety measure to try to minimize scams and part of the forum rules. Linking to a website is just not the same thing as anyone can create a website or use someone else's website pretending it's theirs. Even with the name and date it can be a scam, but helps a little to know the person actually has the items in their possession.

I sold stuff on CACO years ago, and once I was basically giving away some speaker parts for shipping costs. I took pics and boxed the stuff up so I had the weight and box size and was ready to ship bubble wrapped up tight, and forgot the name and date (I hadn't sold anything for a while and forgot about it as I sold hundreds of items on ebay and it slipped that it was required on the forums). I realized my mistake right after posting and requested a moderator to delete the thread until I could unpack the stuff and get new photos, and I still got an "infraction" for it. That was well over 10 years ago, so the rules are the rules when selling stuff. Point being, you can't expect to get a pass on the rules.

Since you won't use ebay anymore, your selling of amps will be limited and its much more difficult. Amps I could sell easily first time around on ebay, would sit on craigslist / marketplace / offerup for months with nothing but extremely low offers, even amps I listed on forums years ago would sit.

I know he won't see any of this since he rage quit, but he seems offended way too easily, which I think why the threats of throwing the amps in the trash, lol. Might be time for him to get out of the repair / selling side of amps and such. I found fixing amps / selling them to be a headache, especially locally, and got out of it a long time ago.
