Must be a Black Friday Deal? Sweet Price. Not sure if its a refurb. Doesn't say it is.

Looks like the price is gone back up. Must have sold all the cheap ones or it was a typo and they fixed it quick.

Did anyone get the deal?

i saw one going for 1560 on ebay the other day with all sorts of other goodies. The pictures looked good and it was booted though it doesnt tell you whats wrong but i honestly think the guy was pressed for money.

the kronos 61 is looking more affordable everyday, though im hanging onto my money until i do some software upgrades.

I could have gotten one. I talked to the people at the site this morning, and was assured that they were brand new sealed units. I asked him twice and got a second response in bold, upper case print that they were brand new, sealed units. I had already ordered a krome, so I had to work with that first. I was fairly sure that I could cancel the order, but I was hesitating. (the Krome was backordered to the third of Dec.)

He said that he would accept the order, and offered me an invoice so that if I used PayPal, I could get an additional discount of $10.00.

I also delayed because I wondered why they were selling for that price. That is $1699.00 after rebate. Even as I talked to the salesman, it seemed too good to be true.

Appparently, though, I've waited too late and my decision was made for me.

Thats where i brought mine back in February for $2475. I checked them out before i ordered. They are an authorized dealer. Mine was brand new. The only problem was the corner of the box got a little banged up but it wasn't their fault.Kronos was fine inside. I've purchased cables from them too. They are legit.

I've purchased a lot of gear from them including my Kronos 88 that I recently bought for $2500 shipped brand new. Their customer service is just as good as their prices.

Yup. that's the same place. They sell on ebay also like alot of retailers do now. Im sure they Will match their own ebay price if you wanna go through the store directly.

Wow! I bought one (in two parts) for 1315,-€ with EXB-Radias and 256MB.
I love the 61 Korg keybed. Much better than all this M-Audio, Roland etc. gear. And the 73 Kronos keybed is a dream for playing piano now that it´s repaired.

I just ordered a 61 from Pro Audio Star this morning for $1879 and free shipping. The salesman assured me that it was new in factory sealed box. We'll see. Sounds too good to be true.

I bought my Kronos 88 on a too good to be true deal from Pro Audio Star and it arrived new in the box as promised. Great company.

Yeah i feel like alot of people are selling their old gear to buy new gear, which is how it works. On top of that im sure these distributers are trying to make a profit and they gotta move the gear somehow.
