makes you wonder what that person defines as a 'sensible offer' in 'all sensible offers considered'

You can buy a pink one for less than $20 of the American ebay

Seems a much better deal to me. And you don't have to decorate it after. It already looks like a bad dream. :)

I'm sorry, am i going insane here? Does anyone else see that same thing i see here:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150181741961

An unbent VSS30 for £73 and £10 shipping!

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260177116039

An unbent VSS30 for £53 plus £7.75 shipping!

What the hell is going on here, ITS A TOY FOR FECKS SAKE! Ok so the sampling sounds magically 'hard' but just because someone vaguely hip and happening uses it does not make a VSS30 worth £83 in total.

The VSS30 is turning into the TB303 of the lo-fi world. I'm just glad i got 2 for £15 for the pair back when they weren't cool.
