    Default First Time Buyer - Need Advice

    Hey Guys,

    So this is my first time purchasing top of the line equipment for DJing and producing. I have a deal in the works right now and am buying from craigslist, I would like if some of you could give some helpful advice because I would obviously rather have one of you who is experienced give his/her insight rather than me make a dumb decision and throw my money away. Here is what the seller is offering:

    Traktor with Audio 10 Interface
    2 timecoded vinyls
    Traktor X1 Kontrol
    Traktor F1 Kontrol
    Allen & Heath Xone 92 Mixer
    Boss DDR7 Digital Delay pedal
    2 KRK Rokit 5 monitors

    He threw $2,000 at me first and I immediately denied and went down to $1,500. I'm second guessing myself now because I think I can go lower. The stuff is quality but I mean I'm buying off of craigslist, could be sketchy. He also said the gear is about 2 years old and has none of the boxes or anything for it, which made me think it over again.

    Let me know if you think $1,500 is a solid offer for the gear or if I should go a bit lower. Thanks for the help all!

    -Ryan

    if he´s willing to let it go for $1,500 you´d have a great deal. make sure to check if everything is working just fine. also check if he will throw in the Traktor Scratch Pro Serial as well.

    Pretty sure the Xone 92 is worth almost $1500 on its own isn't it?

    check to see if the a10 will come with a licensed copy of traktor but even without the software i would say this is a great deal IF everything is working fine.
