Anyone know how much these were...

... when they were new.

what did this rack cost... bearing in mind its the "midi" version and not a full sized rack.

i have no concept of what its worth or what id want to bid on it.

I remember seeing something similar to that on a few occasions, although they were dimensioned for regular sized seperates rather than midi stuff.

The prices were around £300-400, so I guess the midi would have been around £200-300.

 

eeek.... he probably wants quite a lot for it second hand then

argh.... cos my cyrus kit would look so fab on that.. and the veneer looks so close to that on my mission 782se's

all very pretty... but not sure i wanna spend megabucks when i already have a rack that works (its just fugly as hell)

 

Build yourself a Tri-Arbour, it only needs some 2"X2" and 6"x1" pine and some dowel pegs!

 

I shouldn't worry about what he wants, or what it's 'worth'. An item is only 'worth' what someone is prepared to pay.

Racks, stands, etc., in general, do not retain their value very well. You may well be surprised! If you have a search on ebay for racks that have sold, you'll see what I mean ~ acheiving 1/3rd of the original retail price is doing well.

Some ebay lsitings do make me laugh. Often you'll see '**blah blah..worth £750' ~ what they mean is that £750 is what they paid for it, which is a long way off what it's worth!

 

hehe tri-arbour wouldnt be a lot of use to me... as i plan to put a turntable on the top shelf. Would need to be an x-arbour in that case

 

Just bid once and bid the most you are happy to pay for it.

 

yeah have done.. and its not enough.. as if you bid and its at least the amount of the reserve... it automatically goes up to that amount instantly

 

Email the guy for the reserve figure?

 

To be fair the 7 tier was around £900 new and the four tier around £400 when new.

But today they are worth sod all, I sold an ash TV/AV stand three tier (twice the width of that listed) for 50 quid on eBay last year, so don't bid to high.
