Well, when i see ads like this i Wonder how much my two MPS2240's and my 3 MPS2500's With running/matching Serial# are worth... is it me or are there somone else that think this price is WAY of? and where they so expensive in the UK?

I didn't post this in the by an sell section because of the rather steep pricing :)

I just got the Serial# from him...... well this is not what i Call matching Serial#!!!!! 278159 and 279814 he wouldt give them to me at first, so, if this is matching Serial# all my 6 MS275's are matching Serial# :)

Oh he's full if it. I've got closer matching serials than that. There's a mps2500 on Ebay that's only 5 digits away from one of mine.....by 5 digits i mean the last number, not the second....third...lol.

That or he has priced it high enough that the low-baller flippers are not going to bother him by offering %50 of his price as they usually do. I am sure any of us that sold something at a reasonable price has had one of these people offer half of what its worth. He does not have that problem....

Gear is only worth what you can sell it for and they are still for sale. I agree with ttocs. An informed buyer will shoot him a fair offer. He is a little misleading in his description but if you drop that kind of money with the google search inches away and not use it you might deserve to get taken. If he's serious he'll have those amps for a while. That's why I love it here. Stand up guys that ask fair prices for sweet gear. So if I haven't said it before thanks guys for all you do. Ok my two cents thrown in I'm good.

I can see that he have changed the ad, and there's no words about matching Serial# but no change in price, well if thats the price for MS275 now i might consider selling my Collection :) NOT! :)
