I don't know exactly how good these are....but Wharfedale is a respected name. As to your good deal...they can be had brand new for $99 + shipping HERE (http://www.tsto.com/cgi-bin/TSTO.storefront/43d97ab70025a9aa2740ac100341067f/Product/View/2099&2D2)

I'm personally fond of the warm, British Wharfedale sound. But beware that those are going to be hard to drive. Not as hard as the LSi series, for sure, but they're only 86db efficient and are 6ohm nominal. Not exactly easy to drive, either.

Wow. $100 for the pair. That's tempting!
