ShriDurga Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 You may remember late last year one of our former members, GuitarFxr, was buying used MD player/recorders in Japan and reselling through this forum. The thread, in case you never saw it, is here.I am heading back to Japan in early March and am considering something similar for the purpose of raising money for charity. Strictly non-profit. But I wanted to gauge interest before I made the plunge. Are you interested in buying used units from Japan? What's the average maximum price (including shipping) you'd be willing to pay?I look forward to your feedback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrius Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I guess it would depend on the price. With the Yen so strong VS the USD, it's a bit prohibitive for some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShriDurga Posted January 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 In that case, allow me to quote myself:What's the average maximum price (including shipping) you'd be willing to pay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taliesin Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 ShriDurga, I maybe am interested, but as they say, it depends of what your offering be and the price. Last summer I buy a RH10 for about 180 euros (I come from Spain), so for me this is a good price for a similar machine, but I need more info about what you buy and tha taxes for sned it to me. So maybe I get another MD unit? It would be fantastic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfbp Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I'm definitely interested - however currently seem to have exhausted my appetite for "new" units.CheersStephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levanel Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Hum, another EH1? It'd be insane, I'd better stock up on 1GB Hi-MD blanks ...I'm interested in an EH1.. but considering it's only a player I wouldn't be interested if it was priced the same (or higher) than an RH1 would.

Syrius Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 I may be interested in an NH700 or 800. Or even a 600 if it has inputs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bland10000 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) I think the majority of replies to this thread shows that you will have to search out what people want rather than what you can find to offer. Cheers to guitarfxr for purchasing a large number of units to offer for sale but players / recorders that aren't specifically sought end up sitting on the shelf 'til someone makes an 'impulse purchase'. There isn't anything wrong with 'impulse purchases' but you can't rely on it to be a for-sure sale soon after it is offered.

whatsleftofj Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 I would be interested, but the price paid would depend on the unit. For an R-900 or N10, I'd pay appx. $75 (more for a cool color). For an E10 with a good battery, $150. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diese ist es jedoch leider nicht - da steht nur drauf, dass sie in Japan gepresst wurde. ich werde den Verkäufer aber zur Bestätigung sicherheitshalber noch kontaktieren. Also trotzdem danke für den Tipp. Grüße!edit: Hab schon die Bestätigung vom Verkäufer bekommen, dass es nicht die gesuchte CD ist.
