Privatverkauf, keine Garantie und keine Rücknahme.
Against the recent EUR comps you gave, €285 lands above the 75th percentile of €251, so this reads as an ambitious ask rather than a fair-market price. With a median of €209 and a 25th percentile of €167, it is not in bargain territory; I’d want either a clearly exceptional condition story or extra value to justify the premium.
That said, it’s a respected piece for a reason: it’s a mastering/post-production tool built to add perceived clarity, width, and forwardness without sounding like a blunt EQ, and that makes it genuinely useful when you want a mix to “open up” fast. The upside here is mainly the clean-condition angle and any included cables/accessories, since complete, ready-to-run units are easier to slot into a rack. If the listing is truly excellent and well cared for, it may still be worth considering, but I’d negotiate hard at this level.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
