Go go go!

Not on eBay but would like to hear your thoughts...ARP 2600 for 920 usd? Sounds too cheap to be true. Scam?

If it's good to be true it's a scam.

oh come on guys..

first, its an AUCTION. 920 us is the starting bid. i started my cr8000 on ebay also for 9,99.. that doesnt mean thats what it sells for.
second, there are pics of the machine including the serial, so do some research if its legit or not. if these are really the guys pics, it a legit machine. hes also providing too much info for a scam.. unless the whole text is stolen (possible..) why go through all the trouble of stuff like the replacement cord?

third, half rotting away? come on, it has a few rust spots on the outside. a lot of synths do and they dont affact the inside. the ad says it works good and the sliders are good, which is the most important. it probably needs calibration and a cleanup, but thats normal for something unrestored of that vintage.

a lot of people still sell vintage gear because they have no idea of its real value or just because they want to get rid of it. or they dont care, they are not all dutchies that only want to sell for top dollar. especially in the US i've found many things in perfect working order for a real steal, even though a lot of times the owners knew they could get much more if they put it all on ebay..

its all a personal choice ofc, but I really dont wanna buy something that has been stored (and not used) for 24 years, you'll know there are alot of things that become broken because they just power it up,pief paf poef shorting it out. I saw they made a vid of it, so they must be have it running and such, but it doesnt sound very stable to me

and ofc 920 or so is starting price it can go way up. That says not much here. But without that whole idea of scam stuff etc, I just wont purchase such a machine that has been powered down so long. Or I must be prepared to invest some time and money after obtaining it in servicing and such. And, personally, I dont wanna do that.

Some ppl might think that is no problem, all good. But I dont belong to those ppl. I am more a kindo robot that want playing after ripping it out of the postmans hands and not wait 6 months for repairs etc before it is really reiable to use. (I might exagarate the time, but in some cases it might be even longer)

And just as the previous poster said, you are all responsible for your own stuff, you decide. we can only share our opinions on it.

i know, i'd never buy it either.. my point was that just because its cheap and has a few rust spots, thats no reason to think its either a scam or a junker. thats why i said do research, it would be easy to contact this guy in maine to ask him about this. but also the fact that this is a new auction site and one seller sells more gear are not in itself things that call out 'scam!'
then again, with china rising as an economy, why wouldn't there be gearheads too that buy and sell stuff? i've seen analogue synths sold in the most unlikely places.. Mantonio who is also on this forum has a beautiful home built synth from a guy in indonesia, also not exactly a country known for its
