Excellent value for excellent condition: at £7,990, this sits above the £7,001 75th percentile, so it’s ambitious rather than cheap, but not wildly detached from the market for a serious cable of this calibre. Against a median of £5,990, you are paying a clear premium, so this is a buy only if you specifically want this model and trust the condition.
The upside here is that these Vertere cables are usually bought for refinement rather than obvious hi-fi fireworks: they’re aimed at lowering noise, preserving timing and spatial coherence, and letting a high-end system sound more composed. On a clean excellent example, the appeal is in avoiding depreciation pain versus new, especially if the cable is complete, well kept, and ready to slot straight into a finished system.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
