descent deal on an Antares unit?

[Wireneck]

My buddy is downsizing his studio and when i was over there last night he sent me home with a bunch of stuff he trying to get rid of. One of the units is an Antares-1a Auto tune intonation processor.
He said hes prob used the unit 5 times in the 2-3 years hes owned it. Anyways its practically brand new with the manual and in the box.
He told me he would sell it for 50 bucks. Im looking in the new musician friend right now and they still sell new for 450 dollars. So im thinking even if i don't use the thing, for 50 bucks I can turn right around and sell it on ebay for enough cash to buy something else i will use.
So do you guys think this unit is worth the 50 bucks or what? Oh and its not broke, I had it hooked up last night and he was showing me how to use it and stuff.

This would be one of the best deals I could imagine. If you don't buy it, I will. Hell, I'll buy it from you if the price is reasonable.

yeah man its bad but i know i should put it on ebay where the price will inflate nicely. There are definantly a few pieces of gear i could use alot worse than the auto tune and the price it will prob go for, could get at least one of them.

Wireneck, what else is your friend getting rid of?

Hes got a few of those little rolls headphone amps i think hes trying to get out of the way.
He had a 48 channel mackie with the road case but i think he already sold it. Possibly a set of Roland V drums.
Im not really sure ill have to see if he has anything hed like me to post for sale on here.
