My old worn down Juno-6 that I've had for a few years.. it's noisy and nasty.

A BoC vinyl collection.

An Intellivision console / peripheral / game collection. Basically everything released for the Intellivision evar.

It was back in I think 1997 or 1998. Wish I could look that up :)

I'll say around 100-150, though I believe they're roughly 400-500 now (?) Depending on condition of course.

Just about everything i've bought on ebay was a good deal, if it wasn't what would be the point, ya know? I recently got a Black Diamond mountianeering tent for cheap. Also have been picking up Patagonia and Marmot outerwear for the winter season at ridiculously below retail prices.....My G&L L2000 bass was a steal too. Damn, i've been using ebay for 7 or 8 years now.

I have one that I want to get rid of, really no point to it once you've looked through it a bunch. I'll probably miss it when its' gone, but oh well. Any offers?

Which Univox drum machine?!

I didn't know they had any before they became Korg (unless it's a different company?)

It's a 1960's Grundig reel to reel. BOC is rumored to use a similiar model for creating some nostalgic effects. He listed that his one attempt to record with it failed. But I took a chance and bought it anyways for $30 total. I got it in the mail, and the only thing that doesnt work is the microphone that came with it. Hook up any other mic and it works great!

Ah, got ya. Hmmm. I got a Kawai S-5000(?) for about $300 bux, it goes for about $800 i think, well at least that's what I sold it for.

That drum machine looks like an old clock radio or something. Sweet. I've been looking for a Grundig too, but they get up there. And you never know if they are going to give you the "effect" you want. Most people will say how great it still works and how wonderful it sounds. I wish someone would just say "ok, this thing sounds like crap, all warbily and hissy" i'd buy THAT one.
