I live in Brazil and I'll spend some days in New York next month. I
want to buy a good Synth with reasonable price (if it's possible in
NYC).
Does anyone know good 2nd hand shops there?
Alcides.

See note 6.14 for the address of Rogue Music. Good deals on used
synths.
Warning....Not a good neighborhood to walk alone in but the prices
outweigh the risk, imho.

Good if you like taking chances with your money....and the base noter said he was going back to Brazil with the used synth? >Warning....Not a good neighborhood to walk alone... This "neighborhood" that you speak off is only a few blocks from the Digital offices where I work....I guess no place is safe in New York ;-) Kris.. | |||||

re .3
Have you ever purchased anything used from Rogue?. A 90 day guarantee
is usually what you get (except for Ensonic). That seems pretty fair.
Personally, I've bought three or for synths there for myself or friends
and they're all still humming.
Even if the base noter was buying a *new* synth, he would still be
taking it back to Brazil. And with the "infant mortality" rate of some
of the newer synths, used might be the best way to go...
