Im telling you for a fact, the mpc 4000 (new stock) is not available in any UK store, including DV. Sure they will tell you some junk like 'yeah we can get em, just put put a deposit down, we should have em on the 5th'...

I have heard it all before, i have waited for a 4000 silver / 4000 blue / 4000 blue plus many time before and finally own one after going through quite a few 4000s at the same time.

I got my 2500 maxed out for £940 at digital village. (Birmingham.) I thought that was a good deal.

Thats not a bad deal.

My MPC 2500 cost me £780 including the 128 memory. If i add the CD Rom (i can get it for £130 new), i would end up with a maxed out 2500 for £910 inc Vat, which aint bad IMO.

But that is not the case today. £889 just for the 2500 :evil:

Surely that's only list price though?

I got mine for £790 a few weeks after release but it still said around £950 on the site.

I rang them up and asked for their best price, £800. Went into the store to pick it up and haggled another £10 off

Well, my mate just bought his 2500 today for £815. Not bad, but not brilliant.
