Roland BK-9 on craigslist BK9

That's not too uncommon nowadays, Sparky, as sometimes the only way to try out a keyboard is to order and buy one.

I must say, the BK-9 is a very interesting piece...I'm still waiting to see if our local Long & McQuade brings one in so I can get some "hands on".

I see the seller is more interested in a module, BK-7M...personally, I'd rather have the keyboard version of any arranger.

Well if you go by where he's living he probably has the cash to buy, try and let fly on a whim.
Don't most music stores give you a 30 day return? That should be enough time to tell if you like it ? Only returned something once with the Roland BA330 and Sweetwater was very cooperative about it. Just had to pay the shipping.
Tells you he had it awhile and I'm sure played it more than 1/2 hour but its probably still in mint cond. Too high a price for used, just like a new car driven off the lot.

Give Frank a call... I'm sure he'd get you in this ballpark for a new one.
