That's the kind of price I was thinking of offering. I'll have to test it out
and see whether it's functional.

I was assuming it was a further set of analogue voices, but if it's just Latin
percussion then I'll give it a miss.

That should be no problem. I'll see if I can test it and get some quotes for
shipping. Assuming it does work, what kind of price would you want to offer. I
think the company are keen just to clear out some equipment they're unlikely to
get requests for anymore, so they wont be looking for top prices.

Hmm, might have to make them an offer for that as well!
