Akai 4000DS value

[Martyn Miles]

I have a late ‘70s, little used, 4000DS in rare black which I want to sell. What do Forum members think this might be worth ? It comes with the rare AKAI metal reel.

Difficult to say Martyn

Have a look at sold listing on that web site

Only you can put a price on it really and see what happens , you can allways drop the price a bit if it does not sell , $000DS are not top notch machines , You owned it from new ? any servicing done ?

Thanks.
I am the second owner and the first owner hardly used it.
It hasn’t been serviced, but does work correctly.
I looked up sold listings and a silver one sold for £79.00, about what I was expecting.
