Taiwan's eBay

I just scored two of theses off of Ruten. One is working and the other is missing the front panel. My plan is to restore one and use the other for a DIY mono synth.

Ruten is the equivalent of Taiwan's Ebay. I live out here so I spend some time looking it over. I got the Roland RS-09 pictured for 1,000 NT which is like 34 bucks in US currency. I have also managed to get a broken Juno 106 for $100 bucks and a MKS-70 for $100 bucks too.

If you are going to check it out it helps to be able to read traditional Chinese.
