With gear prices still being stupid it'd be nice to hear about some good deals people have gotten just to be reassured there are still some out there to be had.

Don't know it this is much of a deal but it was a good accidental find at a decent price... I picked up a Zinky MOFO from a local tech shop for $800 about a month back.

What have y'all been able to grab recently at a good price? Pics if you have 'em.
 
ESP EC1000 mint with case 500. Single cut.
Plays and sounds like a monster.
Next to my buddies 76 Lester

I’ve had 3 I think were great with the crazy prices! A Jackson PC-1 for $1800, a ESP USA M2 for $1600, and a Charvel Pro Mod San Dimas MIM for $300
 
I picked up a Mesa DR with 2x12 horizontal cab for 1000 which ill keep the cabinet, and a full stack 2017 SLO100 for 5k which I use the head alone. Oh and a reproduction 1903 marine Unertl sniper rifle for 1200 bucks where the guy needed some cash.. all wins for me.
 
I got my Mark III Green Stripe for $700 . It needed a repair so I paid $400 for that , so $1100 was a cool deal to me . Then $350 for ++ mod by Mike B. So $1450 for a fully serviced 3++ green stripe . This was a lucky one for me
I hate you for making me feel this jealous! ;)

I want a Mark III so bad but not at the prices they are going for these days. I would pay 1k without a second thought but everyone wants 2-2500.

There is a Mark III blue stripe posted locally to me and I emailed the guy about it like 3 or 4 times with cash in hand. He ends up replying several weeks later after I'm broke. Then my boss from my second job offers to buy it for me as like an advance on a paycheck email the guy ready to buy no response. Shit has been listed for 1k for 2 months. Had to figure something wasn't right
 
It does seem like most good deals are found on Craigslist or Facebook Market place. Reverb it's too hard for the buyer and seller to really give a deal
 
1988 JCM 800 2205 halfstack for 1500 shipped. Cab has the hard to find 8 ohm Marshall Vintages. This was a few months back though.
Early 80s 1984A Bass cab; 500. Bought it to flip the speakers and put in a pair of 1963 Blues and JBLs…..but the damn G12 S50s sound too good.
