Re: Ebay (Was Re: Selecting vendors)

Probably nothing horribly wrong with it coming from Yamaha, but gear 
does have bugs and OS upgrades are important.  Most you can download, 
others can be replaced with an eprom.

On the other hand, I've learned my lesson being an early adopter of 
gear or software.  Electrix cured me of that.  If it's something that's 
crucial to your sound, wait and do it right.  You probably made the 
right choice in the end.  I think I'm more just defending the ebay 
vendor, which is the topic of this thread.

My main point is I think ebay's feedback system is a great tool for 
consumers.  That's all.
