Where to buy an MPC1000

Hi,

I'm new here, but have been reading the forums for a while now.

I'd like to buy a MPC1000, but am a little concerned about spending that amount of money and receiving one with the old pads.

Has anybody here (in the UK) bought from any of the following sites/shops, and can confirm any come with the new pads?

jsut buy one on zzsounds or some international dealer...look for one that says BK on it...that means black with the new pads...

There are post on here somewhere where a few UK members have listed good places to order...
