I still have that set of 4 flightcased nearly-new Dynamos; if you're interested give me a nod and I'll put the listing back up on DJ Bids for you.

Rather Mrs VV is desperate for the shelf-space in the office back :p
I'm quite happy to keep them :o But I've got too many lights and somethings gotta go. :mad:

Callum,
A word of advice from someone who worked in a bank for 24 years.
I know you said you cannot save money...but why not TRY?
You don't HAVE to spend it now!

Hi there fella,
I have 4 abstract VR8's i'd sell for £300 that includes adda flightcases!
They all work and have got good lamps (4000hours lamp life ) 2 need new mirrors and the cases are scratched but when up on the truss they look good.
Thats a stunning lightshow!
Edit Scratch that just saw your in Scotland these are to big / fragile to post!

Well you must still be doing something right to get bookings and make money. It goes to prove its not all about the flashy lights!

Well if it's Martins yer after, I have a pair of Martin CX-4 colour changers (http://www.martin.com/product/product.asp?product=cx-4) surplus to requirements but haven't got round to putting up for sale yet... good condition, in a padded bag with leads and PAT tested til Feb 09.
You'll have to do another gig or two though, as I want £400 for 'em (which is a buy one get one free price (http://www.total-music.com/catalogue.php?product_id=4452)).

I know it's in response to a post..............
But would you all please refrain from trying to sell your kit on the forum. You know the rules.

4 Dynamos do look very impressive, you won't get that bang for your buck anywhere else.
