Re: Fairlight CMI IIx (w/o Midi) for Sale at VEMIA

2005-04-14 by pescoyez

Hi James and all.
eBay is generally wonderful but it occasionally has its problems of a 
different nature.
At least with VEMIA people who bid know that the items exist; that 
they are from sellers VEMIA consider reputable, and that their money 
is safe until they receive goods which are as described.  In other 
words, in the cosmetic condition stated, fully working unless 
specified otherwise, and sensibly packed and shipped.  
 
But... yes, it is incredibly frustrating to have a massive section of 
a massive collection entered, with only very sketchy information and 
no pics.  
I've been trying to get these, but because the owner is jetting round 
the world at an alarming rate, it isn't easy.
You probably know more about Fairlight prices than I do, but I would 
think the IIx is a pretty good buy at that price.
I hope to add more info if and when it comes from the owner, but of 
course time is running short.
 
Peter Forrest and Pascal Escoyez
