Wow, $3423,50 divided by 49 (not 50!) pedals makes 69,87 dollars a pedal. Pretty good deal I'd say if you happen to have that kind of money to burn.
I also think it's a lot more fun tracking down pedals one by one if you really want to start a collection.

Looks more like a store inventory to me rather than a collection. All pedals are still available in any store.

Good deal, but most pedals included are late-model & nothing very spectacular.

Yea Gurran I agree, I have been watching that one and I think it's a crappy deal for sure. You can buy a DS-1 here in the US at any outlet for 39.00 so if my objective is to by then resell say on ebay (and make a profit) no one will want to pay more than they can get it at Guitar Center for, and if it's the exact same price as GC why wouldn't I go there and get one right now plus have the ability of being able to return it with no hassle etc. So in my opinion the DS-1's are only worth about 10.00 each sell for 20.00 plus the 10.00 shipping now we are at 30.00 so you might be able to sell them. Not to many people will wait out an auction to save 3-4.00 it's got to be a deal. Check this guy out, this is why international shipping is kind of a pain in the ass. He has a 64.00 pedal current new price here in the US but with 25.00 shipping he's already past 75.00 and hasn't even hit his reserve

A DS-1 recently went at GC for $39 with a free new-style Boss power adapter! I missed out on it

Total ripoff. It is almost all stuff still in production. No way would I pay that much for a collection of newer pedals. I would expect a much bigger discount. Maybe if it were a vintage collection in great shape with box and manuals I might consider paying a premium to get everything.

No one's bidding on that right? You will always get more money if you sell the pedals on by one..

To play with them has to be number one.. If someone want to earn money they are not welcome here.. We are a group of people here who love the pedals.. I agree with you totally..
