Not only did RO'N score the SSL, there's a swag of consoles and other stuff on ebay at the moment - a couple of Sountracs, a Studiomaster and even a couple of old JANDS consoles.

I still savin' my $$$ though

probably too tight to pay the listing/selling fees!!

there is a heavy set of disposal rules with the abc surplus gear , its basically public property so it must be seen to raise the highest price .
if you ever see the tonnes of actual junk at an abc auction you will understand why they do it the way they do .

Hey Rick is there a way of knowing when these things are coming up? or is it top secret?

look the auctions are pretty well attended by audio types in the know
the catch is there is never much notice and i am never cashed up when they fall
its ok because its the same for everybody , thats why the sale prices are low .
i personally did not spend 1 cent at the last auction , i didnt have one to spend :(

i go into these things with partners
