Hey, I'm thinking of staying with my Repeater and ditching the Looperlative. Bob's offered to take it back but I imagine he'll just sell it for his $1500 price. I'm not looking to make money on this, but I'd like to retreive my full purchase amount. $1320 gets it shipped to your door if you're in the USA.
