first of all, i would NOT do business on ebay with someone who keeps his feedback private. second of all, he has a negative feedback and i can't tell why. next, this person never stated the condition of the 1k. for all i know, this can be a broken mpc with too many things wrong with it. all of the pics are stock photos. also, he claims he's from columbia south carolina but everything is written in Dutch.

too many factors for me NOT to even consider this auction. keep looking, you could find something.

edit=i meant to say not do business

That's because it's linked to Dutch ebay (.nl) Changing the domain extension into .com gives you the 'original': http://cgi.ebay.com/AKAI-MPC1000-SAMPLE ... dZViewItem

Perhaps remus lives in Holland. Wouldn't buy this one myself though....

Thats the same type of deal that I got but mine came with a 128mb card and a carry case also. The buttons cost 3 dollars each from VST and the S&H is 5 dollars.

Always check your sellers feedback. I wouldnt send more than 50 dollars to someone with less that 100 transactions.

that was one of my main reasons why i wouldn't do business with that particular seller. He made his feedback private. i've been doing business on ebay with paypal for many years as both buyer and seller. and for someone whose feedback is kept private, IMO, there's something they are hiding. your feedback is your credibility so why would you hide it.
