very tempted to buy

Got a speciual offer voucher sent to me for 10% off anything t my local music store, just contacted them and and i can use it on a new 88 Kronos meaning the price is just £2610 or a mint condition repaired (B-stock) 88 for £2499

Think it's probably worth the extra £111 for the brand new one.

Cant afford it, but should be able to get a fair bit back selling my M3-M with Radias and my Triton Extreme, decisions decisions.

Buying it is the easy decision. The hardest decisions are, where in your room you should set it up, so you can gaze at it and what time to go to bed once you have turned it on. :shock:

Buy it. One life :D

How much do you want for your M3-M with Radias? How old is it? With +256 MB?

I brought it a couple of months ago putting in a last second low ebay bid thinking I would never win it for that price.

I brought it for £650. The person I brought it off claims it's hardly used, it's in mint condition except for during delivery to me, the delivery company managed to knock the left hand corner which has dented the top bit of plastic as per this photo

The serial number is 2370 which is higher than any listed serial number for the M3-M on Karma Labs M3 forum, so it must be a newish one. It also has the larger internal memory card that holds all the expanded libraries meaning you don't have to load them off USB

It's boxed and has the manual.

I am willing to sell it to you at £650 plus postage, but I have just listed it on ebay for a buy it now price of £750 plus £30 postage

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Korg-M3-M-wit ... 19d5a13664

which takes into account Ebay fees and paypal, so if you want it, let me know soon as if someone buys it', I cant go back on their sale.

it has both radias and exb-m256

Guess what I just ordered

Now I can comment without people moaning that I don't own one :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

They are contacting Korg on Monday and getting them to do the £99 upgrade before sending it out to me.

I'm on cloud nine

Just in case anyone else in the UK wants to buy one for the price I paid, 10% off until the end of tomorrow (Sunday)

http://www.pmtonline.co.uk/blog/2012/09 ... s-weekend/

I didn't have to visit, did it all over the phone, just mentioned the offer and they were more than happy to do it against a Kronos and guarantee me a boxed, non display model.

Congratulations on your new purchase. I'm doing the same with a Kronos 73 from another shop, it's down at Korg now being updated.

dont do it, because if you do, I will not get to be one of the "A-holes" that whine and complain about people who make comments about keyboards the don't own. :shock: :lol:

I take all that back, get your Kronos and start having a great time! It the most power piece of keyboard music making technology I've ever owned.

Congratulations and get ready for the magical music bus ride. :D

(ps. thanks for reminding me to not be an a-hole)
