It's getting amusing already!! Mark IV for $3500

[JAZZGEAR]

Errr? I don't even think the IIC+ is worth $3500.....I'd never pay it :shock:

Have you owned or played a IIC+? If people are paying over $2K for a used Mark IV, then $3500 for a IIC+ is not crazy at this point in time. If you were rich or had money to burn you would buy one if you knew how sweet they sounded. At least with the IIC+ it was made in limited #'s so I can see a reason for the used cost being high. But with the Mark IV, there are tons of these amps out there to be had.

No offense to current owners, possibly looking to sell theirs for that price, but like I said, I would not pay that sum of $$$ for the amp. Never owned it, but have played it plenty from my friends that own one. I never found a tone in it I couldn't get in the Mark IV. But hey, YMMV.

I am not rich, but could certainly afford one if I wanted it. Just not worth that kind of coin to ME.

:roll:

Hey, nothing wrong with the Mark IIC+ not blowing you away. I mean everyone has slightly different ears and tastes. Mark 4's and C+'s aren't worlds apart, they're both still Mark series amps.

Things are getting a little nuts for a hardwood cabinet. They're pretty, but c'mon, be realistic. I've been trying to sell my MkIV for a while now and can't even get 1100 out of it.

But I guess I could understand the price in that part of the world.....Still though :shock:

Dude, they've been selling on eBay for an average of $400 above normal used retail of late -- since they were announced as discontinued......

Bad timing for you, I guess
