hes just said it's brand new,
ffs, i hate it on here when people just try and skank people out of loads of money
they give a resonable price, say 200quid, and then the next simpleton says nahh, 10quid, or somthing fucking stupid.
plus celdirect, sell, damaged and repaired items, stolen recovered, reimported units, thats why they can sell so cheap.

No Car Electronics DONT sell goofed up items!!! I know a LOT of the Managers and Staff VERY well, they are a good company. So now Ive dismissed that complete lie above, CEL are authorised Alpine Dealers, probably the biggest in the country with a high turnover THATS why they are pretty cheap. When the M1000 was 1st released it was around £400 generally in the market, its now a couple of years old so thats why its slightly cheaper. Halfrauds prices are just rediclious, I mean who'd pay £700 for a 1000wrms mono block 
I'd look for around £325 IF its brand new, but you would prob still get no interest at that. At the end of the day you going to have to lower to actually sell it.

It is brand new, its never even been properly wired up, only to try it out.
I didnt pay the halford's price for it, I paid £400 a few weeks ago.l

there u go then, its £375 worth and it has been used no matter how small a time for, so its gonna have lost a chunk of its value right there.
I also dont think the warrenty lasts if the amp changes owners/or isnt professionally installed and that is going to loose value too.
So Ric_Cav, u can go swivel m8

i know ure not ,but obviously anyone who sells anything wants as much for it as they can get, and buyers want to pay as little as possible!
u will get over £300 on ebay i bet if u put it on there, and u wont get that on here.

Yes mate, i'm with Adi, as soon as its taken out of box and used it loses a lot, look at cars, take it off forecourt...bang...you lose a couple of thousand...well known fact.
Why would you need to test an item that is brand new when your gonna sell it...doesn't make sense...why buy it in the first place?? Its brand new and your gonna sell it, u don't have to test it, the person who buys it can do that and if its still under warranty then they can sort it out, you don't lose as much money and thay get what is in fact, a brand new item that hasn't been used...not even tested!

Thanks Sparco, exactly right.
And £200 was a STARTING price lol, u dont normally accept the first offer do u!!!!
Sounds more to me like it was 'tested' for a while or summat. Why buy something that expensive if u dont want to use it!!!

Quote: "still boxed(box a little damaged tho) amp in perfect condition, used once for a minute and not turned up, powerful 1000W@2ohm monoblock amp selling due to change of plan"
Weird how people like to buy new things, test them and then sell them for nearly full retail price!

At the end of the day an item is worth what someone is willing to pay for it.
All these sort of things are best off sold at ebay anyway inless your after a quick sale
