Thanks for the reply Graham. Well I'm obviously glad you didn't bid! Was expecting the auction to go up to £600+ so chuffed really. Dan

I have just secured a mint bs 3000 from fleebay on which I'm waiting delivery any day now. I'm confused though. It's a small clamper version (which I prefer btw aesthetically), and described as a "later model 3000" thus apparently n.music ready, and "first sold in 2003".
