    Default Repair or sell damaged????

    so i have a vci 300, some careless movers damaged it. The top plate has a crack in it and a rotary encoder for the through volume is damaged, vestax have said £60 plus postage to repair it. I`m unsure if it is worth doing this seeing as all i want to sell it for is the price of a kontrol X1. the question is what would you guys do get it repaired and sell it or go as a sold as seen????????

    He's in Cali mate. I'd get it repaired, working second hand 300s can fetch good prices what with being ITCH certified etc.

    Sell it damaged - I'd buy it off you depending on the price you're looking for.

    Cheers for the advice and interest guys. Think im gonna send it off for repair, more likely to be able to afford an X1 that way. Expect to see it in the buy/sell forum shortly.
