Ok, so I need a hand.

As you may or may not know, i got into djing, and purchased 2 dns3000, and a pcv275 with my money, and the aid of my parents'...well...that didnt last long, because i ended up having to take the tables back for a refund until times were better to purchase equipment. I was embarassed that this happened so i pretty much just went about as if it didnt happen...actually i started posting alot here talking about dj equipment as a way of holding me over until i could get them back.

Anyways, the point is that my parents told me that i cant get tables again, however i'll most likely be going down to the states to get them, because equipment is so much cheaper there, and our canadian dollar is way up.

Now, i loved my denons (the short time i had them) but i cannot buy denon from the states, because of some weird policy they have. Technically i could, but if something went wrong i would have to drive all the way down there to get them fixed, and then make a second trip once they were fixed. So, i'll most likely be switching over to pioneer.

I'll be going to a guitar center(we dont have those in canada) because i hear that they are a good store, and that they match prices. I'm also going to try to get them to take canadian dollar at par, because i hear that alot of stores are doing that across the border, because our dollar is inching closer to being equal, and it also encourages us coming down there to purchase (gas is expensive)

So, to get to the point, i would really appreciate it if someone could point me in the direction of the cheapest price quote out there on the internet for a cdj800, and a cdj1000 that guitar center would price match. The reason i ask for both is that theres a chance i might be getting 1000s, but its more likely that ill be getting 800s, so low quotes for the 800s would be more appreciated. Also, if someone for some reason knew a crazy deal on an sldz, or other high/midrange cdj, i would appreciate that. Im not set on pios, just looking for whatever is a good player that i can get a good deal on.

-thanks alot.

Go for either the 1000's or the S5000's man...

Both are great... I am personally pulled towards the S5000's... however I didn't read all of you blabbering So my post is prolly useless..

isnt the sldz that horrid technics cd player?

My opinion is go with the CDJ1000mk2 if you can. Great CDJ.

I remember a while back when I was getting my decks (2 Years+), there was a site that was terrible to order from (some people never got their orders, delivery took weeks, etc.) but they were the lowest prices you could find advertised, so alot of people would get other places to match them. Perhaps someone remembers it.

Also, ebay seems a good option for CDJ1000's there are some buy it now for <900.

lowest I found with froogle or yahoo shoppin was

at 1149

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the help, like i said, its not a thread about which cdj i should get. I already know that the denons are not an option. So im pretty much just looking for the lowest price on a cdj800. Or possibly 1000...but more likely 800.

If anyone does remember this site, i'd love to hear it.

I don't think you could beat this price on the 800s

OMG! Thankyou sooooo much, god i hope guitarcenter will match that!

EDIT: just want to clear one thing up...how do i get stuff price matched? Do i screenshot the website, print it, and bring it with me? Or do they look the price up on a computer there?
If they take screen shot printouts i could see how a sick and twisted individual could make use of photoshop...

Oh yeah also, if i get an email quote from agipro, how do i get them to match that?

you need to get a quote from an authorized dealer. You might want to talk to dj tranz about doing this, he might be able to work out a deal and ship it to you. he is one of the boys from djmart.com.

Not a bad idea.

And yes, alot of times they wont price match unless it's from an authorized dealer. You could try and maybe email someone from guitar center or sam ash or something show them the link and ask if they can match it, and see what happens.

DJ Tranz is a great guy though. Gave me a great deal on my monitors when I got them last year.

Does anyone know dj tranz's email?

I dont know if i can order online though, i dont have a credit card, and my parents wont let me use theirs for it...

We're going down to seattle this weekend anyways, despite whether or not i get my turntables, so it might be most conveinent just to pick them up while im down there.

Oh, and in regards to the authorized dealer thing, does this phon le karaoke not seem to be authorized?

You might wanna email them to find out if they are authorized, but from the name of the company and the site layout, it doesn't seem like they would be.

As for dj tranz, you can shoot him an email at http://www.djmart.com/contactform.html

Mention you are from TA etc, and see what happens.

If you can't use a credit card but you want to buy stuff online, you still can if the site accepts checks/money orders. If they do, go to the local post office and buy a money order for the amount it comes out to(there's probably a small fee on top of this so don't bring exact change). Snail mail it to them, and after they get it and cash it, they'll process/ship your order.

Fine with reputable shops, but I don't usually like doing money orders. It's a bitch to even try and get any thing back if they decide to cash the money order and not send you anything.
