Bargains on ebay?

[worrasf]

I recently bought one of these from here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-NO...item43afe0de3c

He's still got a couple left. Arrived packed like trhe crown jewels. It is a drop in replacement for the Alps Blue (but your need to cut off pins 1 & 5 as they are redundant). I replaced the Alps in my SOHA II headphone amp and the improvement in SQ is marked - smoother and cleaner is how I'd describe it. HiFi Collective cant supply these anymore as so rare so if you are in the market for a high quality POT this is a bargain IMHO.

ebay & paypal are the worst companies in history to deal with
zero customer service , no contact details have money in paypal for 11months
just cant get at it , they only take notice when you stop paying your fees

Don't say that... I couldn't have afforded it anyway. I think someone around the other forums might have one for sale but at £850..

The Vintage Knob says that there were available in UK but not rest of europe - an oddity that Sony UK did bring over and sold quietly without much fanfair, I guess to pro users?

More good stuff:

Celestion Ditton 662s ... essentially Mk 2 versions of the famous 66s. Much better looking in my opinion!

Shhhhhh!!! Im bidding......no bloody chance now,the cats out of the bag!

Once again, not exactly a 'bargain' but you have no idea how much I'd love this!

It's one thing calling yourself AudioJP but to then actually be based in Japan and charge £425 shipping doesnt make much sense!?

Would have thought it would mean being based in the country you're selling to and already imported.. otherwise you're no different to just any Japanese dealer like Hifi-Do or whoever.

Don't care - I want it!

And I'll take this CD player to go with it....

Yamaha CDX-10000

I love the the CDP (real 'battleship build' stuff, and right up my street), but the T/T doesn't look particularly special, to me...

If you're going to spend that kind of cash for a vintage CDP, I'd go with this one or this if you don't have the rack space

Looks like the CDP you would expect to find inside Darth Vader's meditation chamber - very cool
