Yamaha CS-05

[J. Larry Hendry]

I think that's high IMHO.  But prices vary by locality.  I think for less
than $400 you should be able to get a CS-15.  Don't forget the CS series
(like all Yamaha with CVs I think) is not one-volt-per-octave.  The are
volt/Hz like Korg.   I only mention this because you said something about
MIDI to CV like you might have some other gear you would be controlling
with it.

Greetings,
I was wondering if $400 was a good price for one of these.  Only a few
scratchy pots and a couple of minor surface scratches on the instrument. 
Everything works and it even comes with the manual.  I thinking I should
buy it because I like the S&H and because it has trigger ins/outs, so it
would help me out because I don't have a MIDI to CV converter yet, and
figured this would be even better to have.

What do you think?  Is this a reasonable price? TIA
