I need a D130F.
I have been offered 2 baskets for $50.
I'm here to obtain knowledge about a reconing service.

?? I haven't seen a reputable service recommended on this forum...if it is inappropriate to post a name-telephone nr here, can you privately post me with a recommendation (or even who to stay away from) - my email is [email protected] (re exposing my email...I get so much spam now that any additional spam won't be noticed)

For anyone not having a reconer's name on the tip of their tongue, what do you consider a typical cost for this service? I would assume s/h would add an additional $20 or so.

I will wish to have the F type rubberized cone periphery and assume all reconers offer this. Comments?

I heard that JBL no longer offers reconing service? Comments?

What am I missing here? What can go awry buying baskets in a poke? Comments?

Judging by watching eBay, the value of a freshly reconed D130F is between $130 and $180. My interest is NOT profiting on this but want to exchange my Peavy guitar amp spkr with the D130F and not disturb the pair of 1957 D130's which gather dust in my music room. Comments? TIA
