Best Buys
Can anyone help me with these three questions I got?
1. Can anyone tell me where to go for the cheapest places for buying my DJ shit?
2. Also is there a place I can buy Vinyl in bulk, and cheaper like mainstream trance (Paul Van Dyk, Sasha...etc?)
3.What is the best buy, and the best of these; headphones, amp, monitor etc?
This is my first post in this area of the forums. I also just wanted to say hey to everyone and thanks in advance for the people that answer my noob questions. Hopefully, I can get myself out of noob status in the near future.

I get all of my gear from guitar center. They will price match just about any quote, and they will go out of their way to get you something you need. Another good gear place is www.agiprodj.com i know lots of ppl that buy stuff from there.
As for vinyl, support your local shops and dig instead of buying just mainstream stuff.
Good deals on gear:
2x sl-1200s (try 2 find used)
tascam xs-8 ($150 from audiolines i think)
carts: shure m44-g ($65ea) or stanton 520sk ($30 ea but not as good)
headphones: sennheiser hd280pro ($80 good stuff btw)

Great I got a reply! Thanks man, I'll have to goto Guitar Center sometime. I've bought stuff there before, but since it's a chain I thought someone would have a link to some cheap, but new stuff so I can bother a store in Houston. When I was in Colorado I did that to get a cheaper price on some stuff. Thanks anyway for the responce, I'm just glad I got noticed.

I get most my gear off eBay, sometimes at stupidly low prices

Awesome! I'll definately pm him thanks for the contact. The problem with ebay is they could have spilt something like a drink in the mixer a little bit lowering the amount of time your stuff would last. With ebay unless unopened you just never know.

I only like to gamble if I have a vlear picture of what I"m gambling for that way I can call bs. I'm a card player. I guess if you got a sweet deal, and your broke like me maybe the risk is worth it. How do you write DJ Tranz so I can pm him? DJ_Tranz or what? Thanks again.
