Is it worth it?

My roomate is trying to sell me
2 pioneer CDJ's 100's
american dj Q-222 1/SX mixer
Stanton DJ Pro-2000s headphones (brand new)
for 450 is this a good deal?

im not sure how much they (CDJ 100s) retail for in the US, but over here that would be a good price
it depends if you're happy with decent decks instead of excellent ones, the cdj 100s dont have the most accurate pitch control, and i've never heard of the mixer
you should have a go on them and see if they do what you want them to
and you can probably get your roommate down to 425 at least

you should also ask him why hes selling them

If the stuff is in good working condition then I would say, yea, that is a really good price. Especially if this is going to be your first set up.

Also what do you want to use it for? If your planning on spinning for fun i would suggest you go with vinyl over cdj's

thats a good price, even just for 2 CDJ100s.

i second that. cdj 100s are kind of plain but they are good cd players. master tempo is nice and they have a few effects built in. i think they go for like $300 each new. by all means if you can talk him down some more go for it but $450 is still a good deal.
