Hi there, I've seen someone selling his Solo-tri card for 200€.
The thing is I really don't know how much are they going for these days...
anyone can help me? Is it a reasonable price these days? I know it's a great add-on...

Hi. I think I´m the seller being mentioned.
I am still to tag it with a price, because I simply can´t find any for sale, or recently sold.

Anyway... for 50-100 (?!) let me know where I can get some, because I´d buy a box full of them right this moment... lol...

Seriously:

http://www.vintagesynth.com/korg/trinity.shtml tags it at 600USD

A guy in Brazil saw one for sale in 2005 at 950BRL (Brasil Reais) http://forum.cifraclub.terra.com.br/forum/8/111066/ but everyone commented it was expensive (roughly 370EUR at today´s exchange rate).

Someone sold one for 140GBP (roughly 195EUR) in 2004, here:
http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/ ... php?t=6820
And it is commented that for about 100GBP (roughly 140EUR) it would be a good buy... AND someone even says that at 140GBP it was the CHEAPEST SOLO-TRI he ever saw on eBay.

Here,
http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/ ... i&start=15
comments are made about how the PBS-TRI is the rarest one, at about 400EUR, followed by the MOSS/SOLO-TRI.

BTW, I searched the forum, and found some cool info about the board:

That's the magical part of what you said. Nowadays the Trinity expansions are extremely hard to come by, thus the current price for them is actually what a person is willing to pay. And yes, 200€ is quite okay to be honest if 50€ this way or that way is not much of a problem for you.

1st: You do not need to come on all agressive.
2nd: I was not aware I was responding to an expert in shitty stuff.
3rd: Hey pal, I do think is is quite hilarious, for various reasons... According to my (poor) math, 50usd (about 35eur - do not blame me on the weakness of the USd against the EUr) is barely enough to:
- Pay for the packing,handling and shipping of the so called shitty stuff
- Have a couple of decent meals
- Drink 6 six packs
- Purchase one or two original disk sets for the Trinity
- Buy a couple of octaves of spare keys for the Trinity
(Just to mention a few examples)

Do not get me wrong, but 50$ for ANY Trinity expansion board is worthy of a Guiness Record. And I´m not laughing now.
