Recently been kind of regretting selling the OP-1 and missing the fun go-to-ness of the thing for a daft little jam so I’ve been keeping my eye on some on ebay.

Same here; now back in the market and been waiting for a few months now.
What’s going on here then…?
I got pretty much what I paid for it. (Minus postage cost and hardcase).

absolute bellend mate. he puts one up every now and then for an inflated price then reduces it in the last few hours. i messaged him to say why is he trying to rip people off, he just said “don’t buy it then”
But these are bids… starting price was £450. I see one of the bidders has feedback of 0, he’s probably bidding himself I guess. Twat. (Pardon my French)
^ yes those profiles have 0 feedback so probably alternative accounts or got his girl or friends to make accounts and bid.
My dealer seems to have stock at (local currency equivalent of) 740GBP new, so yeah, anyone willing to pay 960, please get in touch
Just bought one in the UK, had 12 or 9 months interest free finance on it as well if you wanted. They emailed me as soon as i ordered it and said “Sorry our website was wrong we don’t have any in stock.” Apparently they will be getting stock in this week which they will be able to sort my order out with, altho there website says it won’t be any stock till the 31st, so i am not holding out much hope I have a feeling they are just stringing me along. Amazon prime has ruined me, having to wait for things is not what it is about. stamps foot i want it now.
I see musicians friend has bumped up the price as well. Was $849, now $899.
So did guitar center. It was $849 and it went up out of the blue… I believe it was between last Thursday and Friday.
Just heard from Sweetwater that TE has pushed back the availability date to July 6. Wow.
Bought one on Friday from GAK for £749 - they price matched an online store at the time
Just bought mine new for £699 from The Conran Shop (https://www.conranshop.co.uk/lifestyle/music/op-1.html).
I wonder if there is a component shortage?
Nice find on the Conran Shop!
Analog Fours selling for less than OP-1’s on eBay.
Love my OP-1 and glad I got it in December for $849 new. I seriously didn’t want to pay that for it originally but now, looking back, it’s my favorite piece of gear, my favorite instrument and I LOVE IT! worth every dime!
I was surprised last month when a friend brought in an OP-1 to sell on consignment at the local synth shop and wanted $820 or $840 USD as the listing price. It’s in beautiful shape but I couldn’t believe they were going for that much.
It’s a hard thing to sell for sure. I attempted to a few times but kept falling in love with it.
