Y-ellow All.
         OK here's a curly one. I've got this Korg Polly61. It's beat up to 
shit. It still works and actually sounds half decent but you wouldn't 
exactly wanna try and play it. I got it for a few bux about 5 years ago 
with plans to modify it into some kind of other arrangement. I wanted to 
fudge MIDI control onto it and shove it in a rack box but when I thought 
about it, it would be a total pain in the ass and I've got better things to 
do.

It's sitting on a shelf and collecting dust and I'd like to eBay it. But! 
I'm not sure if I should sell it like it is. Still mostly in it's box and 
beat up to shit. Melted keyboard 'n' all. Or if I should pull it apart and 
just sell the boards and bits etc for spares. To ship it like it is would 
be a bit of a nightmare. I don't even think Australia post would touch it.

I'm not so much worried if I'd get more for it if I sold it one way or 
another but would it be worth more to someone in bits or as it is. Which is 
tantamount to being in bits but does have some semblance of structure.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.

BTW: I haven't offered it up to the list first (Unless someone here REALLY 
REALLY REALLY wants it.) because of shipping costs.

Thanks in advance.

Be absolutely Icebox.
