Rotel 965BX CD Player Value ?

[hpm40]

There's a Rotel 965BX CD player available locally with original remote control and owners manual. Is this older player a good investment and what's a fair price ? Thanks.

I if your talking about the one listed on Ft.Myers Craigslist along with the Carver receiver and B&W speakers I would avoid this seller. I have had negative experiences with him the past. He is always selling all kinds of miscellaneous items.

Yes that would be the one. Thanks for the heads-up.

It does look to be in exc condition although $200 seem a bit high. If you do decide on it just make sure you fully test it before purchasing. A few years back I bought a Hafler amp and pair of kef speakers from him and took his word that they worked perfectly, when I got home the amp had half the left channel components missing and one tweeter was toasted. He would not return my calls or emails. I chalked it up to a lesson learned, my fault for taking him on his word. Just be careful with that seller.

Wow, I'm sorry to hear that. I'll be extra cautious and test it thoroughly... if I choose to proceed. I agree, the price seems high.
