Beloved?

What is up with Sellers describing the item listed for sale as "beloved"? I looked up the meaning of beloved and learned that it means:

Urban Dictionary: beloved
www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=beloved
lovable, yet in a non sexual way. able to love one without purpose of intercourse. means special in a way that is beyond that of lust...

Now I get it, the Seller loves his speakers but does not want to have sex with them.

Ads that begin with the redundant phrase "Up for Sale" also make me wonder why the waste of words. Of course the item is up for sale since this is the exclusive purpose of the ad. I have also seen "Up for Auction" when there is no auction for the item.

Some of our brethren are clearly so enamored with hi-fi that they'll never actually get near... you know... a girl. A 'special' relationship with a pair of speakers is bound to ensue...

My speakers have great bottom , hot set of tweeters , wears spikes and can be very alluring. That said they will stay beloved. Women are my thing. Martykl if I list my speakers you're safe , yes they're ported.

Grimace, are you suggesting that a girl can serve as a substitute for a speaker or can somehow be better?

It's not limited to audio gear. I can't count the times I've seen someone's "beloved guitar" up for sale.
