Today, I received a 1986 copy of Sounds magazine. In the back, there's an ad for Soho Soundhouse (now better known as Turnkey)." The last three TB303s on Ebay sold for and $1025, £600 and $1875 (that one came with a TR606).

Yup, I still hurt from the day in 1991 when I went around the second-hand shops of Dublin looking for a distortion pedal for my new guitar and I was offered a 303 for £25 (the guy in the shop didn't know quite what it was), but I opted for a Boss Supradistortion instead. Dammit! Although, check out: http://www.ladyada.net/make/x0xb0x/index.html I've ordered mine...
umm, I got my TB303 a few years ago for the princely sum of NZ$60. The guy who I bought it off didn't need it anymore and there was a misprint in the ad (it was advertised as a DB303).
why tb303 while you can get the 303b0x I just bought one and it is really great it cost me around 250$, but it really worth. I think it is better than tb303, also you can assembel it buy your self if you want to buy only kit version of it!!
