the best price i've seen for a 1200 mk2 is $670 brand new in the box unloaded, but that was from some dude from "in the mix" or "the scene". unfortunately, by the time i got to him he'd sold out, but would inform me if he'd manage to get his hands on some stock.
from stores, lightsounds.com has been advertising them for 800 a piece in the trading post, not sure whether loaded. discoworld.com.au too gave me a quote offerin 800 so atm, i'm tryin to heckle with some guy there who's offerin a pair, loaded with slipmats for $1700. but after reading bjet's post, i'll have to check out dj village!
btw. i dun think u'll be able to use overseas quotes to price match. they'll vary, espesh with the whole exchange rate, and hell, some products are just priced differently in diff regions e.g. vestax pcv-275, which is the price of the djm-300 up in the states
as for needles, u'd probably have to pop over to the dj booth to get some real specifications, but elliptical is way to go if you don't intend to scratch and just mix. though they don't track as securely as spherical needles, sound quality's greater and it'd be less wear amd tear on your vinyl.
yikes, i jus realised u asked for the prices of m3ds, so throw an extra 50-100 on the price quotes =p u know though the m3ds look better than their older brother, the only real diff is the slight wavering pitch at 0% for the mk2s. not really worth the extra moolah when you're able to hear n handle the mix b4 it gallops during the transistion.
anyhow, hope i helped! =p
keep us informed on the purchase of ur new table! |

i saw that too and inquired. Ther story is that the guy would not do c.o.d and wanted the $ transfered into his bank account which was very dodgey. now he may ahev been telling thetruth but no one gives someone who they dont know $1300 without seeing the product. |

i didnt even get that far to find that out. but either way, i'd like to give human nature the benefit of the doubt. like to think ppl are ethical in some way or another, and arent targeting to screw ppl over. its naive *shrug*, but to prove that, i actually did what u mentioned with my mixer, over ebay paying 1K. but b4 any transaction occurred, a signed contract was definitely called for. as long as u have some sort of reassurance, should be good, otherwise u can always head up to the petty courts and visit the likes of judge judy =) |
