cameltoe Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Just popped into my local store to see if there were any unwanted Xmas pressies and this caught my eye- Tech 21 Sansamp RBI preamp QSC 1450 power amp Both in a Penn flightcase for £124.99. Have no idea what they are worth but it seemed cheap so pulled the trigger based on what I could google. Bargain or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) Off the top of my head the RBI is two hundred quid's worth at least and I would imagine a QSC power amp to be a similar value if not more, so yes, a bargain.

Geek99 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Sounds like a bargain to me, my local one is selling a line6 guitar head for £69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BottomE Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Indeed very large bargain. Had a Sansamp and t'was very good. From memory the Sansamp cost over £200 at the time and that was second-hand so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3below Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 This hurts, it hurts very much, it reminds me why Mid Wales is not a good place to live at times. What is a Cash Converters? I am told there is one some 32 miles from where I live. I think you should donate the aforementioned equipment to the rural poor at a significant loss to yourself, thus helping reduce the rural poverty imbalance. They are a bargain with capital B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.noisy Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 I had only one deal at Cash Converters, and it was the best deal in my life, I bough myself a Yamaha saxophone there when I had one of these days and I wanted to play sax after listening to some smooth jazz. Don't remember the exact model, but brand new back then, about 2 years ago, it was around £2000, and they had it for sale at £350. It was totally mint, not even a little scratch on it, so I bought it, tried to learn for about 3 months and then sold for £1100 and bought myself a Yamaha motorcycle . Since then I am always popping in to the Cash Converters, but I am every single time a bit disgusted on their prices, every guitar they have is way overpriced for a second hand, only about 5 or 10 quid cheaper than a new one, and they just don't sell them. I don't understand their pricing at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
