Members progrules Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 MF sells the firewire 1814 at 500 bucks, but they go for 300 on ebay (new with warranty, apparently). Why so much difference? Is it a scam? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nerol1st Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 Doesn't sound like a scam to me. The firepod goes for $500 new and usually runs 3-350 used on ebay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members progrules Posted July 31, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 Thing is, it's new, not used: Linkie Linkie 2 Not even refurb, apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mrbrown49 Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 As long as both come with same bundle, accessories and software, I'm not sure why there would be such a huge difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TimOBrien Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 #1 reason not to buy an interface used: Computers are picky. You may have problems with it and you CANT take an eBay purchase back..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jvod Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 Progrules, Linkie 1 - mentions the included software & Linkie 2 - You would need to ask the seller if the software is included ................ Linkie 1 is a cheaper total w/shipping! I have bought & sold many, many ,many things on ebay and your first linkie looks like a legitimite trustworthy Killer Deal!

Still I can't figure out why it's so much cheaper than MF MSRP is 600. Helluva difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jvod Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 Yeah, I've found a few deals like that. Musicians Friend is not always the best deal. However, I use them for a measuring stick. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Michael Blue Posted August 1, 2008 Members Share Posted August 1, 2008 Just make sure it's new, not opened, and returnable w/factory warranty. ...And a trustworthy eBay seller (there are some out there ). Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
