[galaxion]

i'm just off the blower to west end dj's and they ONLY have the b-grade VCI-100's (until a restock another week or so.)
he said there were "two or three there"

if you do ring to ask about the firmware, post it up here.

Cheers for everyones advice - I have one on order from west end dj - from japen. And its a nice fresh black one. They did have some B stock - but had trouble finding out what firm ware they had and they only came with a 6 months warrenty (from vestax). Which got me thinking - do i save money and get one now - but with a smaller warrenty. Or spend a little more and get a new Black one with a full year. What with the later in the end. cheers peeps

you could always support dj techtools and buy a brand new black VCi-100 from us!

They are back in the webstore and come with overlays + firmware upgrade

Very true, I did think about it - but cheaper to get the overlays on their own and hopefully, get the 1.3 firmware. Could do with a consortium over here in the UK to update from 1.2 to 1.3.

Ahhh, the loss of Vestax's UK distributer may explain something - The mother ordered me a set of Vestax (DM-01) headphones for me just before crimbo (from HTFR), but as of yesterday she still hadn't recieved them, so I told her just to cancel the order. HTFR continually said they were coming in, but never materialized..!

I got a used VCI-100 from fleabay myself. Only problem I have is that the previous owner had already registered the copy of Traktor, so he has to de-register it before I can use it (you get a 30 day trial though). I think I have about 4 days left of the trial to go before I can no longer use it! Just something to bear in mind / check if you are thinking of buying used.
