What do you think:

http://cgi.ebay.de/Boss-Vibrato-VB-2-AND-Boss-Tremolo-TR-2-Effects-Pedal_W0QQitemZ290343547791

I think it's always suspicious when the seller states he has no equipment to test the functionality of the item!

The price tag however is not too high.

So what's your opinion?

I would buy them with no hesitation, if one of the pedals should be faulty i know it's always repairable, all components are available.

Hmmm... the VB-2 main chip is pretty hard (but not impossible) to get.

It is simply a buyer beware situation - if the VB-2 is dead, chances are it is a relatively inexpensive fix, however, you don't see very many dead VB-2, probably because there's not much you can do with it; (can you recall seeing a beatup VB-2???)

Seems to me, the seller sells a bunch of stuff on ebay, and probably doesn't have the wherewithall to test it and is simply trying to be very very clear of the fact he has not tested it, but the unit indeed LOOKS like it has not had much use.

Good luck to the happy winner!

Here's your beat up VB-2:

So they can be dead!

For the TR-2 + VB-2 on auction now: just over my budget at the moment
