Boss RV-3 and PS-3

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm really interested in getting these two pedals specifically. However the only ones for sale are around $150; i'm not sure if that is a good deal. No one from America seems to want to send to Australia. =/

Is there any outlet for second hand effects pedals?

I can't speak for anyone else but if the buyer is willing to pay the shipping, I'll ship a pedal to Timbuktu, Mars, B.F. Egypt, wherever.

$150 is not a terrible price for either of those pedals, which routine sell for over $100 in the US.

150$ is the average price. you can find them cheaper once in a blue moon. I've seen PS-3s go for 300$ so 150$ isn't bad imo.

Thought i'd inform you that i have now bought both items. The RV-3 was $140 including postage (like $100 before) and the PS-3 for $150 including postage. So i am quite happy =)
Ill get back to you on my opinion, especially you Jumbo =)

if thats us dollars, then i think thats around what i paid for mine like two years ago. if memory serves, i got it from a fellow tber). it truly is a great pedal (ive considered buying a second as a backup, in case they go way up in price for some reason, and mine gets destroyed or something terrible). with a tap tempo in it would be an absolutely perfect pedal.

the rv3 i do not know. sorry.

I bought a RV-3 a few weeks ago. Mostly use a light reverb setting, but delay works fine. I don't use much of both, but like to have it near. Haven't really found a good delay use for my band context.
