This is ambitious at £39. Against your recent comps, it sits above the £36 75th percentile, so it’s priced a touch rich rather than a clean fair ask.
That said, the PO100 Pro is a well-regarded little USB digital interface and can be a very tidy upgrade if you need cleaner input handling or a more flexible source chain. If it’s genuinely clean, fully working, and includes the original cable/box or other extras, the right buyer may still find it worth paying up a bit; if not, I’d be looking to negotiate closer to the low-£30s.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
