My own belief is that you need to set yourself a budget cap for every item, otherwise you may get carried away.
I set myself no more than £100
People may say that you will get nothing for that but I got.
Roland JV1080 with 3 plug ins for £100
Behringer stereo graphic new for £99
Behringer compressor new for £99
Alesis Midiverb 4 new for £100
Rode studio condenser mike new x2 for £100 each with frame and pop shield.
Akai S2000 sampler for £85
Alesis ADAT x2 for £80 each.
If you ferret around on the second hand market then there is a lot you can get for £100 or less if you negotiate. And even with new stuff, if you kindly make an offer to the shop then often they will negotiate.
Its a buyers market in these difficult times and the retailers need to sell, so it is always worth putting an offer in.
Obviously this gear is not industry standard but for my means then it is good.
Cheers all
