seller is being quite honest:
"I started to receive crazy offers to sell it, and that in turn is ruining my ability to look at it like the $400 pedal it is.
So I'm listing it at a truly stupid price. It's hard for me to grasp personally but I kind of understand that if you're a YouTuber or being one of the first people in the world to own one is otherwise important to you, then maybe it's worth it for you."

2,5 k€ is quite reasonable for a boss pedal, due to the really rarest transistor in the galaxy and the original circuit
Someone told me that are from thanos private collection, iron man stole directly to him

The seller is on TGP, seems like an honest enough bloke about the whole thing. He said he’s getting a load of hate mail on reverb and someone has already offered $1,800

As for him being “honest” or someone has offered him 1800 is complete bullshit

The fact that he’s on TGP says it all

It's times like this that make me so grateful that TGPers aren't interested in 1960s pedals :badteeth:

Not to sound stupid but wouldn’t you think Boss would make more? It’s a great pedal but they’re really into making money. One would think they’d make more to satisfy the market ( rare transistors and all. )

It is interesting how you will find less controversy among the TGP gang regarding a $79 piece of plastic to cover an $800 pedal than the perceived value of the TB2w.

You would think so, but don’t understand limited numbers and botched release. Seems like you could find some more transistors if you already “found” 9000.

$400 x 3000 units = $1,200,000
