Orange Terror Bass "B STOCK" Question.

Sign in to disble this ad
Im looking into getting the Orange Terror bass 500 head. I found a "B stock" one for $579 on ebay. Do you think its worth saving a few hundred bucks to get the b stock(keep in mind I'm broke)? Is it too risky?

It says "This item may be a floor model or store return that has been used. See the seller’s listing for full details and description of any imperfections". And "These items are fully operational to manufacturer specifications. B-stock items carry a 90 day manufacturer's guarantee"

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

If the warranty is legit, then it is a good buy. Great head!

Should come with full warranty. IME these are often new units they wanna clear but are not allowed to pice lower unless they advertise as \b stock or demo, etc. I wouldn't hesitate if it's the head you want/

I was really looking at this head a while back, but went with something else. Anyways I agree that if comes with a legit warranty and/or a great return policy then you have really nothing to worry about.

Orange is very tight about their warranty.
If a Orange product is not purchased from a authorized Orange dealer there is no warranty.
From my experience very few ebay sellers are authorized dealers.
