From Spain.
Hola foreros.
Yo he comprado mi MPC-1000 por 680 euros y la ampliación de memoria de 128 megas por 56.90 euros.
Es una caña esta maquina... y más siendo tan barata de conseguir en España (Spain)

Welcome to the forums. My girlfiend has just left for Spain this morning!

Any chance we can have that in English? Something about the MPC1000 being really cheap in Spain? If so, maybe I'll give her a call to buy me one when she's out there...(she'll be in Barcelona)

cool

I'd love that in english too. If we'r jus dealing with numbers, lookis like he's saying MP 1000's are going for €680 out in Spain. Hmmm if thats the case Tutor, I may need 1 also. For us, thats like £472..

can she bring one for me to. LOL

...mis jefes del almacen de recambios electricos donde trabajo me lo trajeron de Japón en un viaje de negocios. Ya sabes; si conoces a alguien que se vaya de viaje al Japón pasale los mondongos y verás que contento te pones cuando tengas tu MPC casi a mitad de precio.
Valíó la pena.

i'm italian.. i'm comin in spain to buy a mpc 1000!!! (in italy it's 990 euro and the ram it's 100 euro). in the second post he ask if the spare part must be buyed in japan (i have a bad inglish but it's better than spanish i hope...).

greetings, everyone.
i've been lurking around here for a minute trying to decide whether i'm gonna drop the money for the 1000, but hadn't joined until now.

i speak spanish as well, so i'll translate, if necessary.
what rivesman is saying is that he works for an electronics shop and his co-workers brought him the 1000 from japan for that price. so, he says, if you got any peeps headed on a trip to japan, give them the cash and you can get the machine for like half the price.

but, i did the math, and converted from euros to u.s. dollars, it comes to about $870. that's the same price as it's available widely here in the u.s., so, sorry, nothing special.

but anyway, let this be my introduction, too. i look forward to learning with y'all. i'm sure i'll have a thousand questions when i finally drop the cash.

y epa, rivesman! si necesitas un traductor, estoy aqui cada dia y puedo perder todo el dia en la computadora aqui mientras que trabajo.

Muy bueno!

...gracias por traducirlo.
Y contestando, te diré que con la calculadora en mano, no me habría arriesgado en la compra del MPC-1000 si mis jefes me hacían pagar los portes.
Si hubiese pagado los portes, creo que incluso saldría más caro que en cualquier tienda de instrumentos musicales de Europa.
He tenido suerte, nada más.
por fortuna mis jefes tuvieron en cuenta la diferencia en el voltaje y eligieron acertadamente, bajo mi supervisión via internet, claro.
