Tokend Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 (edited) ... MiniDisc Canada http://www.minidisc-canada.com/shopdisplay...rtable+MiniDiscThere are new RH1s available from MDC. With the apparent demise of the RH1, I wanted a backup unit, and I didn't want the so-so mic that comes with the M200. I paid $309 USD. Price this morning is $307. LIP-4WM batteries are about $32. Used RH1s on eBay have been going for about $250-275, so I was happy to pay a little more for a new one. Just passing this info along in case someone else is trying to find a new RH1.

jrv2kgt-s Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 While on the subject of RH-1's. Are the Silver Japanese units supposed to come with a blank Hi-MD disc? Because the new silver RH-1 unit that I just bought didn't come with one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tokend Posted August 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 I got my second RH1 from there as well, with the handy small carrying case they have there. I recommend MDC too, even if some fellow members has some issues with them. I can't complain for my order, it got delivered really promptly.I did receive my unit, and all is well, now. But, this wasn't one of my more pleasant buying experiences. Besides my order (which did not result in a confirmation email), I sent an email requesting confirmation and shipping status. I got a reply saying it would ship on a certain day, but no acknowledgment that it did. Subsequently, I sent 3 or 4 more emails, requesting status and shipping information. No replies. I began to think that I had been duped. So, I sent an email with the message that, unless I heard from them promptly with the requested info, I would call my credit card company and cancel the purchase. The next morning, I got a phone call. The unit had shipped, and they gave me tracking info. All in all, their order processing seems to "work," though not sending order confirmations is inexcusable. Their post-sale communications leave a lot to be desired, though. They claimed that they had replied to all my emails, and that I should check my "junk mail" filter. I did, and there was nothing there. Besides, the one email had gotten through. I think the junk mail thing was a dodge. Just one person's experience, FWIW.
