£599 is well above the typical used market for a Mojo 2 and looks ambitious rather than fair. Against your database anchor, it sits far past the £333 75th percentile, with the median at £274 and even the upper quartile at £333, so this is priced at a very noticeable premium.
That said, the Mojo 2 is still a strong buy-in if you specifically want Chord’s compact FPGA DAC sound: clean, highly resolving, and very capable as a desktop or transportable DAC. If the unit is genuinely mint, includes the original box and accessories, and has a clean ownership history, the appeal is the product itself rather than the price. At £599, I’d only bite if there’s something unusually desirable about the package.

Chord Electronics, a British high-fidelity powerhouse, traces its roots to the aviation industry. Founded in 1989 by John Franks, a former Marconi Avionics engineer, the company emerged from his early 1980s innovations in ultra-reliable, high-frequency switching power supplies for aircraft electronics. Initially too costly for commercial viability, the designs became feasible with advancing components, launching Chord from its Kent headquarters in a renovated pumphouse that remains its manufacturing heart.
The brand excels in premium amplifiers and digital-to-analog converters (DACs), blending Franks' analog prowess with digital expertise from FPGA specialist Rob Watts. Early power amplifiers quickly won acclaim from professional studios like the BBC, Abbey Road, and Skywalker Sound, establishing credibility before shifting focus to consumer hi-fi. Iconic products like the Hugo and Mojo DACs exemplify their boundary-pushing approach, alongside integrated amps and streamers, all handcrafted in the UK without compromise on power, precision, or musicality.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Chord commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its uncompromising engineering, aerospace-grade reliability, and bold innovation. Independent and proudly British, it sets benchmarks in transparency and dynamics, attracting buyers who demand reference-level performance over mass-market concessions.
