is $1200 a good deal on a mpc 3000

I found a 3000 w/ a forat custom paint job, internal zip drive, and fully expanded memory.

should I jump on this deal or what?

I mean If I dont like it I can sell it on Ebay for a profit>

thanks in advance

Peace.

The paint jobs tend to loss you money not gain you money.
People like the clean origional paint job of the 3k and 3k LE more than custom paint.
$1200 is about the right price for a clean V3.11 with 32meg.

1200 is what they should go for.. when they are clean and stock


agreed that custom paint jobs only lower there value...

Yeah, people trick em out, but stock its where its at for resale. Although, Forat does do a good job on custom jobs.

Anybody want to sell me or trade their original LE sidearms for some custom Forat sidearms(black glossy & arm rest?)!? Yeah, I've asked before, but its been a while!



One important question I want to ask. How does it work? Have you tried it out? Thats ultimately the most important thing, I think.

The screen is nice and bright. all the knobs/buttons works. no scratches or anything major wrong with it. I messed w/ for about 20 mins, boots up nice no problem, loads sounds, and was working cool. I have never used one before so I dont know what the problem areas are. Do you guys have any advice on stuff I should check out on it before I buy it.

What we are saying is unless you just gotta have it, pass on the custom job.
If you pay $1200 and don't like it or want to sell it you won't get $1200 for it.
People just don't but the custom jobs.
If you are willing to pay around $1200 you should have no problem finding a nice 3k.
I wouldn't pay more than $900 for it, just to hard to re-sell if you need to move it.
