I haven't checked other vendors, but did receive an email from Nova Musik advertising (among other things) a lower price on Kronos - several hundred dollars off of the usual MAP.
I wonder if this is a sign of an impending price drop?

I got an ad from Guitar Center. $250 off the Kronos 61, $300 off a 73 $350 off an 88. Instant rebates.

Looks like demos, used and "B stock" items, so the price drops would be expected in these cases...

Actually, I am referring to the ones that are marked "new" and "15% off or more" that say "Want a lower price... add to cart".
Kronos 61
Kronos 73
Kronos 88

I'm always skeptical of deals that look too good to be true.

Normally i wouldnt want to buy something like this used. This on the other hand could be a good deal because it is so cheap a) it might not be broken b) if it is it will still be cheaper to fix this one then to buy a new one.(how long is the warranty good for and yes i know you dont get one when buying used. It could still be a bargain.)

"Brand new in original sealed box" - they then proceed to show it out of the box! hmmm...

that little detail is not important

Doubt it. Why would the price be dropped on a current, recently released board? |

Wow, indeed. Not.
Run Forest, run. Simple. If it's too good to be true, it is. |

Is there any doubt that it fell off a truck somewhere?
