Buying An Used NT1

[JuliánFernández]

Hi Guys! My first post here! I´m starting to buy the equipment for my home studio... I was ready to order a new NT1000 but i found a cheap cheap used NT1 here in town. So i decided to go for it. Tomorrow i´ll go to check it out, but i have a BIG doubt. How can i be sure that the mic has no internal damage? I mean, i can´t know if the guy treated it the right way (pop killer etc), so, how can i know if everything is OK under the metal shell.
It´s kind of urgent, so THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Julian.

If it is that cheap and you find something wrong with it later, you will easily recoup the cost on ebay selling it as an item that needs repair.
