Pio CDJ-200 market value

Hey guys, I found a pair of CDJ-200s locally and I'm trying to get a feel for a realistic price to pay. So quite simply, what would you pay for 2x CDJ-200 in "great" shape?

Also, anything I should look for when I demo them?

Thank you!

Dan

I know they're $350-$400 new. Don't know how much they cost used though.

Used don't go for much less, around the $300 mark.

just make sure the all the functions work, that CD's load smoothly etc.

Look for the usual signs of excessive use - around the start and cue buttons, as well as scratches on the CD drive opening (you can tell from this if they have been used loads).

Sounds funny but try give it a gentle (careful) shake to hear if anything rattles (they could have dropped it and damage might only be internal).

The last weird thing is smell it - you can tell quite easily if it has been used in a smoke free environment (which nearly everyone on ebay claims about their kit, but I found my Ebay bought CDJ-500 had a load of tobacco in it when went to service it).

hope this helps.....

Thanks a lot Rann, I didn't think of any of those.

Let's just say these 2 units are priced below $250 a piece. I'll let you know if it works out.

Thanks again, I really appreciate the help.
