Ridiculous eBay 'Buy-it-now' and starting bids.

[analoglsd]

Just logged into the 'bay and saw this:



I'm assuming the price is a typo, but it made my eyes bug out for a sec.

why? was it changed after you saw it?

It was $47,999.99 when it first went up.

ah, hehe. yeah probably just a typo.

it used to say $47999.00

[space6oy]

he already shared that before my second reply...

[samuraipizzacat29]

$2k more than the last one I saw and $3k more than the one I had a chance at but turned down because it was 10 hours worth of driving.....

Best deal I think I've ever seen...

[Sir Ruff]

So it looks kind of beat, has mods whose effects are equivocal, and has midi (all things that usual reduce the price). Which is why you are charging more than ridiculous collector versions go for... Logical.

Is this a good time to think about selling my AN1x ?

AN1X prices in good shape are all over the board. It's one of those things (for some reason) peeps are still willing to cut off their arms to get. I'd been looking to grab one cheap for a while and had to settle for one without a power supply and a few key issues for $350. and i'm pretty cheap. that'll teach me to sell synths I should keep

anyway, who knew the 03r/w was a "vintage classic"? or as he says: "Up for Grabs is a classic that every true musician should have in their arsenal." I guess I should pack it up then.....

there must be some SICK herb in australia.



and it's from a shop too, so I feel like marking it as fraudulent just because they should know better.

Yep that's Awave - they're actually not too bad with prices on new stuff but older synths like that Korg MS-2000 are part of the store owner's enormous vintage synth collection, which takes up most of the shop.

Now why exactly the owner feels it's good business sense to have his showroom floor taken up by his "mostly not for sale" collection or why he likes to over-inflate the actual market value and list the odd one on eBay from time to time is all beyond me.

But it's definitely a cool shop and they're pretty nice guys there

[samuraipizzacat29]

usually these lists are c**p. Prices are salty, but any time there's a fizmo rack in the mix, it's worth a look. I haven't seen a fizmo rack for sale in almost a year......

That MS2000B is like... almost 3 times as much as what you can find it for on Craigslist
