Hi All,

I have a used 40 gig player with a blue faceplate for sale. This unit has been babied and well cared for. Guaranteed to be perfect in every way. Comes with brand new sled, Kenwood remote, AC adapter, etc. I'm throwing in a brand new empeg fleece and a few other goodies (more faceplates...)

Will ship anywhere and will even pay for shipping. Best offer over $500 will take it.

I'll give it a few days on here and if it doesn't sell, I'm going eBay...

Thanks.

- Jon

Why would you want to sell it?

Not sure why this really matters, but it's because I bought another one with larger HD capacity...

It does matter to me because i haven't bought one yet and i didn't know if you were selling because you didn't like it or weren't happy with it.Just need some assurance to know that i'll be glad when i get one.So, is everyone happy they got one???/ Mike

So, is everyone happy they got one?

Yes. Pretty much universally. Even those who got one at its original price agree that it was a bargain at over $1000.00. It's one of those things that's hard to explain because a true appreciation of the player requires messing with it for a while.

Or being without it for a while.

Ah, you see, I could never in my life let THAT happen. So I wouldn't know.

<<BRRR>> ...you sent a cold chill down my spine just saying that.... <<shudder>> Speak no more of it.

Oh, and yes, it does seem to be a universal love response.

Not one bid here! Am I asking too much from a price perspective?

I think I gotta go eBay...

I think the price is seen as bit high. The sonic blue store still lists 30 gig in stock at $399 and 60gigs in stock at $499. The ebay sales seem to have calmed down a bit from the frantic pace around Jan 1. Maybe demand has settled down a bit.

Either that or Bruno got 'em all cancelled.

Ok, last chance. No offers? Must I stoop to eBay level?
