I don't know what's funnier - getting the brand name wrong (possibly on purpose), or trying to sell a used HB DC for $389, a lot more than new...

I saw that too and am often tempted in these situations to contact the seller and politely ask what it is it about his that makes it more expensive than a new one. I think also that I might prefer Harry Benton.

BTW, if you're interested in that model, and you don't mind the body being thinner than the real thing, for the $250 that Thomann charges, it's a pretty good value. Here's a lefty b-stock for about $40 less than normal list below:

...and the same price with better specs than the base model:

Accidently replied in the wrong thread earlier but I did politely ask why it was 110 more than Thomann shipped price. His answer "Because everyone offers less and I can do what I want." And I thought yes and prettymuch everyone will bypass it and buy new instead.
