    There can't be many places doing them new for £199 any more.

    I'd get one new at £195, why take on someone else's bodge ups as the will be plenty of crap 99's about. I'd save yourself the hassle having to sort one and buy something else.

    What would you consider an appropriate second hand price?

    Must admit the 99s do seem to hold there value slightly higher than the 2/3 usual rule.

    For example say for arguments sake £200 new price if using the 2/3 used selling price for something in say decent condition by my maths that would make it £133

    Very rarely to they come up for resale at that price usually they seem to be in the £150-160 area.

    Obviously the 2/3 rule is only a guide as anything that’s popular or in demand can create its own niche price.

    Morning pigeonfan. This may help: Member Davecook has been trying to reply to your p-m regarding your enquiry about the HW95K that he currently has listed in the for sale section, but as your p-m box is full he can't, so maybe you could delete a few messages to make space, and then contact him once done?
