I have but not in good condition and not selling either. But just curious, why would anyone want it in 2024 given one has many options? A pregnant rat chewed through one of the Cones to lay its pups inside the speaker!! and I was thinking of buying a pair of another brand and hence wondering why you would want this in 2024
I am going by my gut feeling that these are going to be excellent value for money today also provided they can be had for around 200 USD or lower equivalent to INR. You see they enjoy a very good reputation, they are tower speakers and if you are able to get them at the desired price point then they will be a much better buy than 2 way bookshelves at 30 to 35 thousand.
I am sure you see my point of view now. It is about economics here

I have a pair of Pioneer FS-52 paired with NAD320BEE which I run with my TVs audio out playing amazon music. I have been using this setup since 8 years now.
On days when I am in the mood and have the house to myself, I plug in my Modi3 DAC and use my laptop as a source with either Amazon music or my FLAC collection.
It has taken me quite some time to understand these speakers and get their placement right - it's not perfect but I got to live with the constraints of having a little kid at home.
I am not an expert by any standard but the FS-52 are damn good with my setup. Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, ACDC and even Taylor Swift sound fantastic. The bass is just the way I like it - not overpowering yet punchy and definately makes its presence felt. The low end extension could have been better but it's asking too much at this price point really. Mids are where it is balanced and makes the snares and drum rolls pop.
If your heart is set on the FS52 go for it. It's a well rounded speaker for the price if you can find one.
All the best
