Well my order seems to have gone in OK.
Seriously, if I get an almost mint Touch for £130 inc postage, that has got to be the audio bargain of the decade.
And I was about to spend £99 on a HiFace USB/SPDIF converter....

Wayback when I got my first SB3, it was on a silly promotion from Amazon and when I'd got it running I couldn't believe how good it sounded for the money - audio gear at computer peripheral pricesOriginally Posted by twelvebears
. That was the start of the slippery slope, and now 3 bedrooms, living room, kitchen and study have players of one sort or another in . . . Hmm. Could start on the bathrooms now

At half the RRP that's some deal. Couldn't resist and so second Touch now on order, though awaiting an order confirmation and so fingers crossed that they still have stock. Thanks for the heads up on this one

Bargain
Looks like they have plenty as if you try to add a thousand to the cart it says they only have 539 available

Just received my order confirmation
Can't beleive they damage that many boxes, does all this discounting mean a replacement is imminent?

That was my thought too

It doesn't matter if there is a replacement coming - it's a good product and most importantly the infrastructure around it (web-based control, apps) is excellent.
Nice move, Mark, putting 1000 units in

It's a superb component, Tim. The moment you open it up you'll become 14 again and will play with it for hours, guaranteed
