You go into their showroom and that is the general feeling I get. Sometimes
you can beat them down on price, but their idea of a deal often seems to be
List + 10%.

I will say their showroom is really fun to look at, though.

I have been in the market for a low cost cassette deck, I rarely use
cassettes any more like most people, but my Tascam 112R deck is not
working properly...it has been fixed before but the problem came back
so I thought I might just get another deck. Obviously I don't want to
drop a lot of cash on a cassette deck.

I had found a Tascam 112B on Ebay that didn't meet reserve, I emailed
them and they said they'd sell it to me for a bit less (as in under
$150).

So I've been considering that particuliar deck, mainly because it's
coming from a shop that serviced it and carries a 90 day warranty.

So looking around on Ebay some more I come across this one from Coast
Recording:

$440 starting bid? Buy it now for $450?

Are these people on drugs?

These decks usually sell for $150 max, and you can buy a new one for
about $600.

I'm beginning to see now what people mean about Coast Recording not
having a clue about prices...do these people actually ever sell
anything?
