    A little overpriced in my book.

    325.00 to 350.00 at most. I paid about 325.00 4 years back for mine.

    har,

    Tend to agree with John, at least in today's market, but if it's mint with box and manual, and Serial # 10,000 or higher, I'd consider it.

    Back in the first quarter of the year it would have been a damn good price for the above described 1.5. $440 was the average price on ebay, with a couple going as high as $470. Lately the average has dropped to the mid-$300's with the choice ones bumping $400.

    I just bagged one for $300 that looked pretty sweet. I plan to resell it after Christmas, hopefully for a profit...
    More later,

    Tour - Jesse might be looking for something hardcore soon, you know he has sold his soul right? 1.5T might be the thing.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Yup, but what a way to go...

    TD, was right in the other thread. Jes needs to see how much wind is in that ES's sails before commiting bucks in another direction... but he will be...
