Good gawd... I can't believe how much this went for! Maybe its just me ,

but I was gonna bid $20-30 for this and see if I could fix it for my work rig.

damn, must be the current FOTM vintage PCDP

I had two, gave one to Thrice. I think I paid just under $100 for one, around $160 (iirc) for the other in mint condition. I figured that I overpaid for the second one, but I liked it so didn't care. It's a pretty nice pcdp, but it needs a stable surface and isn't, therefore, really portable. It's good in a nice bedroom/office rig.

If you think that's crazy, you should see what Denon DCP-150 go for, when they show up for sale.

Yeah, I figured the 150 would go for even more... but this DCP-100 needed to be fixed and it still went for that much.

[kpeezy]

Yeah... I was watching it and was surprised too...

FYI there is a DCP-50 and a iRiver iMP550 on ebay as well... I have to buy other stuff

People are still into vintage pdcps?

[thrice]

Wow, I was thinking that $200 is good considering how much people are willing to pay for those two. I've seen DCP-150s go for $500 on eBay.

Yeah. I use one at work. Kicks the living shit out of an iPod, at least one not big enuff to hold alot of uncompressed tunes. Well, at least without buying a DAC. But then I'd have SPDIF to deal with... so, I don't mind hauling some CDs...
