This is the best thing I've read today...

Anyway, guitarcenter.com consistently has a good supply of used RPs.  They rate the condition of the device, which is very useful, and the prices are very competitive.  They also offer a 15-day no-questions-asked warranty, which is something you don't get on ebay in most cases.  They'll mail the device to you from any of their stores.  Go to guitarcenter.com, go to USED GEAR, and type in RP355 or RP255 in the search window.  

I recommend the 355 if you want to get far beyond the usual.  The 255 sounds great, but it doesn't have dual LFOs, a ring modulator, the FX25 envelope filter, etc. If you don't know what those things are you probably don't need them, but if do, and you've ever wanted to take the harmonica where no free-reed instrument has gone before, the 355 is your baby.  For more-traditional sounds, the 255 does the job just fine.
