Its dollars, and these guys are a bunch of electric piano and rompler
snobs, if its not a triton they dont touch it.
I might try to haggle with them on it, if i decide i want it. I have a
n an200 now so i really dont need it. I just could not believe they
had one. When i say its mint , its like its never been touched, heck
it wasnt even plugged in.

BTW, i took a look at the vsynth today. I dont know about that thing,
plastic endcaps on a 2200 dollar synth? The sales guy which happens to
be in charge of their synth purchasing says " well the tritons have a
lot of plastic " , I am like, " well you dont see my buying one of
those today either " .
I DO dig the groovy lcd screen. This is the first synth i feel like i
dont have to have a pc to program, its that in depth. I am still not
convinced it is a great synth for my needs, seems kinda gimmicky.......
