Set my alarm to wake up in time on the East Coast and grabbed this one for $515. I needed a case and some modules to share with my X330...figured it would be cheaper than trying to buy modules seperately since they seem to be bringing nearly $100 a piece if and when they do come up. Seller said he has the pickguard and bracket, so maybe it was a good deal on a complete and original MPC:

Another X340 Jacaranda (without modules I believe) has been languishing for awhile now with a BIN of $799 or BO. I made an unreasonable offer earlier of $250 which was understandably declined almost immediately. The BIN is certainly a little high though, especially with no modules if that is the case. Maybe my deal at $515 will help someone negotiate a little more realistic price on this one - it does look pretty good:

That guitar at $515 was a better deal than mine at $400, I think... wave headstock with presumably the newer modules, better condition.

I would have tried for that one but I opted to go with the older one as I like the differences from my other MPC models. That one looked to be a very nice complete one as well as the higher priced one. I also made an offer on the higher priced one but was declined also. I think he will let it sit for now and hope for the best. he recently had listed an X810N that sat for awhile before it sold also.

Arthur...did that 810N actually sell? I made an offer but it was declined. I thought it didn't sell this time around either, but I lost track of the listing.
