YMMV with these, but another leaky battery Polysix, "a few keys make sounds, not many." $800

ADDENDUM: Post was updated to purely OBO w/ a "Feel free to make an offer (This means the price listed before isn't what I expect to get, hence the "make an offer" bit, so don't start crying on random synth forums!!! HAHA)"

So, welcome Craigslister / possible silent VSE member ;-)

Heh, beat me to it too ... what's crazy is that it sold for $2200. Granted it was in nice shape, but with the new rereleases out, just don't understand that purchase ... :?

I wonder what the pricey item in this one is, the headphones or the SD card. And the shipping? That's twice what a guitar ships for via EMS.
Keys: Realistic Concertmate 500, Korg K25, Korg Micro X

Guits: '86 Fender Japan '50s Reissue Strat, '80 Aria Pro II TS-300 Thor Sound

With the arrival of the Ms-20mini I've noticed two separate trends emerging: a) those who say ok, I suppose people can pretty much get it new for less than half the price so I'll accept something more reasonable b) and those that say 100% ORIGINAL, NONE OF THE NEW c**p MOOG OBERHEIM IPHONE - I can flog it for three times as much!

The price of Junos has always been horrendous to me, but $650 for this POS?
