i know i can get these anywhere but im on quite a tight budget being 17yrs old and not filthy rich.
im looking to buy:
2 cdj800s
1 allen & heath xone 32
1 (pioneer) efx 500
i dont necessarily need these all at once and wouldnt be able to buy them (at once) anyways because of $ lol but if someone could help me find a legit site that has good deals id be quite thankful. |

I don't know if you have a Guitar Center near you or not but, that's where I've bought all my gear. Generally, if you can find a good deal online, and as long as the online dealer is an authorized dealer of said product, Guitar Center will pricematch it.
I dunno, I just wasn't comfortable trusting UPS or FED-EX to ship my TT's, mixer, or CDJ's - I preferred taking them home from the store myself.
Plus, I like having a specific salesperson to talk with/work with if I do have any problems.
With all that being said, if you are still looking for good online deals, I think there is a TA named DJ Tranz that works for an authorized online dealer and he has hooked up some deals (from what I've read on the boards) for other TA's in the past.
Good luck! |

Where I got my gear from...
- CDJ-800s from DJMart.com (one for $480, another for $400... negotiating a price with a live person = win. It's also an authorized dealer).
- Xone:62 from some other website (it was hella cheap, and the dealer was authorized but I couldn't, for the life of me, remember it. I'll see if I can't dig around and find it).
- EFX-500 from my local record shop, which is an authorized dealer and had the cheapest price. |

i can tell you to NOT buy from JEMpro Electronics.
i bought a cdj from them brand new, plugged it in and it didnt turn on. i called them and they told me i had to pay to ship it back and wait a month for it to be returned. otherwise, if i wanted to return it i needed to pay a 15% restocking fee. i then found out they weren't authorized, and spent the next month completely convinced i had been ripped off. their customer service was the WORST i've ever experienced, and i was totally surprised when the package finally showed up. they had a good price tho.....
walmart > jempro |

Haha, it's kinda like the little brother to the ultimate setup :p (Xone:92, CDJ1000s, EFX1000). I think the one difference is that you have a red EFX, and I've added a Powerbook. |

I'll see your Powerbook and match you a G4 iBook that's on it's way out to be replaced by a Powerbook ;)
Wil: Use DJMart, Dan's been cool to us, hooked up good deals for Myra's decks and my mixer :) |

what should i aim for when negotiating these prices
cdj 800 = ?$$$ like 400 or 350 or what |
|

| Well, they're listed as $600 on the site. I think the first time I aimed for like $450-500, and ended up with $480. The second time, I got just over $400 because it was on backstock and I didn't even need to negotiate. :p |
