Just a heads up: there is a seller on ebay selling unopened SACD's of Steely Dan's "Gaucho" for 14.95. This SACD is OOP and the cheapest I had found it before this sale was about 60 bucks for a used one. The seller must have a few cuz I just got mine and in the mail but it's still listed. This is one of the best sounding albums I've ever heard and is a must for system demos.:D no affil...

    Looks tempting.

    I'm skeptical though - I ordered (tried to) Bryan Ferry's "Boys and Girls" SACD off of Amazon - the website said there was like 12 left.

    Then I get an email saying that they are having trouble filling my order and to click on the link if I want them to try and continue.

    Nope - pass.

    At least I wasn't charged.

    H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.

    I ran into this situation a while back, the seller was listed as Amazon, and "in stock". I placed the order, then got the same message about having trouble....etc. It was an OOP cd, so I figured I'd hold their feet to the fire on this one.......4 1/2 months later, I got the disk, and a complete refund.:eek:

    Sometimes they surprise ya......:D
