Here's my dilemma and saga. GM knows it well, as he followed it step by step.

About a year ago I bout a pair of 416As off eBay. They were reasonably price for the shape they where in. Had come out of a pair of A7s somewhere in Jersey. But had been reconed with MI cones. They were pretty beat.

As bought, they worked, but definitely needed a recone and remag. T/S parameters showed weak magnets. So I dropped then off in OK city into the hands of Bill H. He remagged, reconed and sent them to me. Lovely cones, but.... magnets still weak. Qts of about 0.5 on one, 0.4 on the other. No good. Vas not close either. They're way out of spec.

I called Bill to ask about it. He said he was pretty sure they remagnetized them, but they could have slipped thru. So I sent them back. They zapped them again. But they hardly changed at all. So I had to pay for the 2nd remag. Both Bill's measurements and mine show weak magnets, one more than the other.

So here they sit, fresh cones, weak magnets. What to do with them?
I can not honestly sell them knowing the magnets are shot. Or may I can list them on eBay cheap with full disclosure? Really don't know what to do with them. Would like to get a little money back out of them, but do not want to cheat the next owner. Right now they're just taking up shelf space.
