I took a stroll through some pawn shops in the hood today, just rescued this guy... Posted on: 25.02.2012 by Romelia Stankard I won't bore you with the details of how much I paid, I wouldn't want the poor guys overseas to cry over it in jealousy- but it was a pretty damn good deal and I've never been able to pick up a M5G for anywhere close to what I just paid. This is actually the first M5G I have ever had reason to buy even when they were still being made. It's in pretty decent shape. Now I have a dilema, hold onto it and sell my MK5s and find another M5G or just sell the M5G and keep my MK5s. | |

| Romelia Stankard 27.02.2012 | Sorry guys they are already sold to me. |
| Palma Hanslip 27.02.2012 | Tell your friend i will give him $500 for them AND collect them! (I live in the UK and it would still be cheaper doing this!) |
| Ira Alsadi 27.02.2012 | Tell your friend I'll give him $450 for the pair. |
| Danae Dumler 27.02.2012 | where's your friend? $400 for the pair?? |

| Tania Somppi 26.02.2012 | Give it a spin and see how it feels I love the +/- 16 and beatmatch slightly quicker on that setting, whether I need to use it or not. |

I wouldn't want the poor guys overseas to cry over it in jealousy-
As for the poll, neither of the above..find another M5G then decide which one would you like the best before selling any of them :P |
| Delila Vandommelen 26.02.2012 | ... Why you little... *curses* You should get a mod to rename you to "Technicstacular" or "Techstacular" or some variation thereof -or at least get a special rank of "Technics shelter" instead of "Tech guru". Sure, you had a 4D, two 1Ds, you've probably had a 92 and you have a DB4 now (I've lost track), but the constant thing in your setup is a dj room filled with 1200s up to the ceiling |
| Romelia Stankard 25.02.2012 | Damn redditors ruining my secrets, knew I shouldn't have posted the price over there. ಠ_ಠ |

| Carlotta Fabick 25.02.2012 | Saw this on reddit and cursed the user once I saw the price. Came to djtt and then cursed some more. |
| Romelia Stankard 25.02.2012 | Well if I sell it I wouldn't do anything to it (no point modding it or adding more LEDs since then whoever bought it would have a mismatched table). I'm trying to debate if I should try to track down another M5G and ditch my MK5s. On the one hand I believe the black MK5s look a little better with the matte finish and the black tone arm components, but then again the M5Gs are cool and they have the added pitch. Either way I would probably make the same amount of cash in the end just selling my MK5s and tracking down a fair price on another m5g is more of a hassle. |
| Ira Alsadi 25.02.2012 | Give it your patented once-over, and sell that bitch. |
