I feel like this thread is the reason horsehair vacuum cleaner brushes were invented.
Discount filth is good. Hobbyist recycling should be a high-status activity, not something to hide.
Y’all are gonna love this one. Cheapest on the market.
I pretty much only deal with eurorack modules these days, meaning that any guck being flung at the modules easily falls/runs/pours right off the panel.
So yeah. Only buy equipment with a vertical operating surface.
Aaaaargh! >.<
Yup, eurorack is always clean as a whistle
Related but maybe a slight tangent - I hate gear that comes with a rubberised coating that ultimately turns sticky and nasty. My QuNexus isn’t there yet but it’s going to end up there, I can tell. I’ve generally had to scrape it off using a credit card and some isopropyl, but it’s not a fun task.
Local pickup only, USPS won’t let you ship biohazards.
Wow. Is that household dust? Or dandruff?
Grim.
You’d think these were coming from building sites.
Grime, grit, and grunge.
That and the eurorack, eegh.
You laugh but you had enough cement to make you a small wall for free.
Thanks, folks, i’m now ultra paranoid about minor dust on my sales images
I will follow you and quietly judge you…
I don’t plan on finding out
Not a synth, but it is Vintage 1990’s Made in Japan bro. Sells for $280 refurbished.
It’s a bug bear of mine too. I always keep gear clean, and also super clean it before selling.
There’s some shockers on Reverb, usually listed as “Mint”. Always triggers me when they also say “minty fresh” in the description…
Here’s a shining example: Mint my arse. Take it out of the rack and clean it to take a photo if you really want to sell it you lazy skanky fk.
And another…
You judge quickly,
the first was probably in a sawmill or carpentry workshop…
