right...
its been up for sale a few days now on ebay, with a buy-it-now thats actually less than what was comming up when i did a 'completed items' search...
however, theres some other stuff i want to purchase yesterday : ) so its time for me to drop the price, i guess -
so, if anyone here wants it, they can pm me their offer
bare in mind that the buyer will pay shipping and transaction charges - please dont say "ill give you xxx shipped to mongolia" : )
and, please, no silly offers... : )

In doing a completed item search the only one that was listed higher than yours (at 600 pounds) had numerous mods. Different front panel, flat leds, various switches and knobs.lurker wrote:right...

If you want to get this kind of money maybe you should do some mods first?

you know i dont really think £565 is that high if you live in europe, since theres no more kits, by the time you get all the parts to europe you pay s**tloads in shipping and taxes, then the time to actually build it. Course you can always self source and build it yourself or pay someone to do the build for you. End of the day its all about options, it's still hell of a lot cheaper than a tb303 in similer condition (if there are such specimens anymore)
lets not forget ebay/paypal takes a fair chunk on the sale too, it probably works out to about £200 profit for the seller (or less)

there were a few at about $1.1 -1.2k when i looked, and i think someone in holand somewhere had sold a few for more than i was asking too. i think these were all stock.
but, yeah, that said, its evidently too much, else someone would have hit the buy-it-now button - im cool with that, hence my offer to drop the price if anyone sent me an offer.
cant say fair'er than that, can i? : )

This is very true.phono wrote: it's still hell of a lot cheaper than a tb303 in similer condition
I prefer the x0x to a 303. It sounds the same as a 303 (to my ears anyway!) and the sequencer is much better IMO.
I reckon people will get better longevity out of a x0x than a 303 also. Particularly one that has been built by someone that knows a thing or two about soldering.
It should be the 303's going for 500 and the x0x's going for 1000!

i used to think i wanted a 303 no matter what, but BANNED if i could figure out how to use the thing when someone brought one overclickerbuzz wrote:It sounds the same as a 303 (to my ears anyway!) and the sequencer is much better IMO.phono wrote: it's still hell of a lot cheaper than a tb303 in similer condition
didn't sound any different, was a huge pain in the ass to use, and my massive viking hands did not take kindly to those lilliputian knobs. not the type of thing i'd BANNED out 2500bux for.
