Umm -- weren't these averaging $150 on the street a few months back?

wow. thats another example of an auction that reads something like "Boss Harmonist." there is no model number in the title. maybe if it would have said HR-2 it would have sold for more

The one I purchased did have HR-2 in the title, and closed at $95.29. You couldn't touch one in any condition for less than $150 in the spring (I know, I was trying to).

I see prices falling -- everything except for the SP-1, DM-2, SG-1 and VB-2.

I just grabbed a MIJ HF-2 for $50 looks really good shape with clean box and instructions. ... i'll bet a lot of people are busy with trying to squeeze last bit of summer before school, and busy with prep for school. So shop now!

Look at my post for LM-2 with box and instructions, $49.99 is fantastic deal!!! US only though.

BUT you are right, an HR-2 "MINTY" box or not, was unheard of under $125-$140, add shipping of $10.00 and so really your 150 price is bang on.


I really love the HR-2, sounds better than the PS-5, I pretty much use it like on OC-2 except I dial in one octave up or down, as needed.

Love it!

That DD-2 is up to $80.00 now. That's more like it.

It's pretty much becoming a one-day auction game now. Few bids until the last day, then all of the snipers duke it out in the last few seconds.

I actually have a few things I'd like to put up for bid, but will probably wait a while. Mabye around the holidays things will pick back up a bit.

I remember last fall, prices were nutty; everything was up on eBay in October, in anticipation of shipping b4 Christmas. I'd say mid October is probably a good time to list ... only after the students have pawned all their pedals off because school is too much money (this will be figured out by Mid Oct too, methinks.)

Wow. I paid about $56 for my BD-2 (stock, unmodified) earlier this year...

Also -- the inserts in the knobs here appear to be silver, not gold.

/yeah, I went there

The other thing I've noticed is that the number of open auctions is not increasing, so the push downward is not from oversupply. Bidding is just more restrained now, it seems -- only seeing slugfests for the more desired pedals, both from the "collector" as well as "working musician" angles.
