I haven't shopped for Emu EOS Sample disks on e-bay in over a year, but the used to run $10 and up for single CDs. I have a few Emu III disk, but personally don't care for them. I have several in the Formula 4000 series and prefer those. I have one loop sample 2-disk set, and have no use for that. A while ago someone was selling that one on e-bay for something like $70. In bundles (eg 13 disk sets, etc.) the per disk price was usually cheaper. Sometimes, you can find low end samplers bundled with tons of disks that might be attractive--you can get the disks and unload the sampler. Someone used to sell (and perhaps still sells) hard drives with sample disks already on there. Regarding the evolution of samples presets that Aaron spoke of, that may be why I prefer the Formula 4000 CD-ROMS to the Emulator-III disks--the presets seem to be more creative. If you need a SCSI cable to connect a SCSI drive to to an Ultra Sampler, I picked up a load of about 40 brand new ones--after refusing to buy single ones at overinflated prices.
