I wouldn't offer more than $3500 even if sealed ,  warranty transfer is costly with the mandatory purchase of new tubes

I just don't see the value in buying a used Decware.   Part of its allure is the Lifetime Warranty.  To obtain a warranty transfer is going to be almost $500, not to mention tubes which there are many of in that amp. 

The UFO84 is worth sending in to transfer warranty because it's $150 or less and the tubes are cheap....   more expensive Decwares have a number of tubes that add to the cost.    Good luck

Decware is saying 20 months?    How is that possible ? They built around 650 last year , half were UFO84 which are no where near as labor intensive as Torii , 300b , etc.    Do the math, over 2100 backorders,  divided by 650 = approximately 3.25 years.  Steve G's  300b review will push that to 5 years real soon.   

Yep I was told it was a 1 year waitlist and it looks like I will get mind at the two year mark.  Appears you need to double what they say to manage your expectation. No refunds on deposits as well if you tire of waiting.  They do seem to move quickly on the used market anyway. Driven by the wait times one would think.
