Best bargain EVER? I was in a pawn shop in Tallahassee, in the early 90's and there was a JBL Paragon in perfect shape, it had a $900 tag on it, I really didn't know anything about that model, but I loved JBL and the wood was to die for. I asked the sales guy about it and he said a senators son pawned it because he was on drugs, and said he just wanted out of his shop, offered it to me for $600. I lived 50 miles away and needed to bring back a van, so I left and came back a week later and it was gone. Too stupid to have not paid for it first, but I did not know at the time they were selling for $20 to $30 thousand dollars in Japan. To this day I wake up sometimes in a panic about that deal I missed!
Best bargain find ever ?
I've just missed out on sooo many I'm curious what others have snagged. I've found some really good deals but have yet to hit the proverbial jackpot. I once got a Kenwood KD-650 TT w/granite base/ SME 3009 III/Shure V15MR MKV in immaculate condition with owner's manuals for $200.00. I also snagged a Parasound PH/P 850 Pre-Amp for $125.00 (when they were going for $450.00 new) I also once got a complete Adcom set-up GFA 545 II amp, GTP-450 Pre, GCD 600 CD Player with a pair of Paradigm Titan speakers for $400.00. How about you ?
