yes it can be.. this is a picture of what happens when you're good at second hand shopping.. the best part is that a classic instrument is ALWAYS second hand, what's important is who's selling it a juno 60 bought off the bay from a "dealer" might cost you up to 500 bucks (more if you stupid enough to keep biddng after 350).. same synth in the thrift store a block from my house 200 bucks..my white faced arp odyssey, the one in my avatar.. cant touch one for less than a grand, mine was purchased by a frind for 25 bucks at a good will in slo i paid him 150, installed a filter that costs 89 bucks and i have one of the most sought after mono synths ever.my other vintage synths and alot of equipment have simular stories behind them.. . so yeah.. for me even that's alot, BUT i reckon i've saved thousands by expending effort and patience rather than cash.. and theres as many guitars a synthesizers here. those are a different story though..
