Then again you are from up north hehe jk mate.. I find a picture/link of the search button a lot less helpful and takes no time at all! 
If i had the money for a DNS3500, i'd be considering other cd decks. But i'm not 100% sure..
Seems like you're comparing two very different decks. Price-wise that is..
I know, from reading on here that the cdj200 holds it's own. However the DNS3500 is supposidly built like a tank, (again as is the cdj200 lol)
It's a tough one, but i don't know all the small features of the 3500 to compare it to everything i've read about the cdj200..
If it were me, i'd probably go with the DNS3500, just to be different as it's suppose to be a lovely deck.

why is it that people from different societies have to hate on americans? especially on TA? the guy's a moron, but not because he's american. let's try and stay away from the stereotypes, please.
anyways,
if you got enough for 600 bucks per deck, i would spend the money on two cdj-200's and get an efx unit instead. how i understand it, the dns-3500 has a little less accurate pitch (.05) as opposed to the cdj-200 (.02) but the denon has built in effects and a gimmicky-spinning platter. the platter and the effects are unneccessary, and you can find a better effects unit to buy on the side.
it sounds like you're new to djing, and i guess if you're looking for something that will look cool and impress your friends, get the dns-3500.. for the spinny platter and the effects knobs and such. i guess.
definitely if you've never tried djing before, don't buy anything. try traktor first. why drop $1200 on the denons, and then at least $150 on a mixer and all that, if you may or may not enjoy it
or better yet, if you want to spend even less money, get a pair of denon dns-1000's. they have the same built-in effects, no spinning platter, and a little less accurate pitch (.1) which is, contrary to popular belief on the forums, definitely manageable. i got mine for a little less than $500 for both of them.

fyi- i had already conducted a search and read all of the posts on the CDJ200 before I started this thread.
However, I haven't seen these two players compared side by side because of the price difference. My biggest fear is to out-grow a budget player and have to go and get the expensive one anyway. Like I said I don't know much about mixing and if you guys think that the CDJ will last a long time i.e. won't need to upgrade within a couple of years than that's what I will get. Frankly I can't see paying what they are asking for the CDJ1000MK2.
