The same person who sold it to me had a Korg MS-20 and a Roland TR-909 for sale back then. I should've bought both of those too. What the **** was I thinking? 
i know man... how would we know that this stuff would be so sought after now a days. i had a tb 303 at one point, a buddy of mine had a sp12. he thought he gave it to me. turned out it was in a truck of his that got stolen we never put two and two tegether until years later.
Damn, that sucks about the SP12.
I bought a TB-303 on ebay in 2005. But I returned it because it had a few problems.
As far as not buying the MS-20, I didn't know much about modular synths at the time, and had no idea how to sync it to MIDI either. I also read something at the time about the MS-20 back in 2002 when I was gonna buy it that suggested that something could be wrong with the unit. But I can't recall what it was and didn't understand anything about it. So I didn't wanna take a gamble. But for $600, I should've, since it was an old friend of mine who was selling it (as well as the 909) and would've given me my money back if there was something wrong with it.
The 909 had a few scratchy pots and a button or two that didnt work so well. If I knew back then what I know now, I could've fixed it with no problem.
10+ years later, the prices have doubled on these machines. It's crazy!
