Half the battle with this hobby is finding a decent deck or capture device without overpaying — and the good gear is all second-hand now. I keep a running, country-by-country list of the places worth checking: the marketplaces, the specialist sellers, and where good decks actually turn up. It's here: https://digital-archivist.com/2024/12/27/global-list-of-web-sites-for-purchasing-second-hand-equipment/

If your country or a good source isn't on the list, tell me and I'll add it.

And if you're hunting for something specific — a tappable Panasonic, a HiFi deck, a particular capture card — post what you're after and which country you're in. Someone here may know exactly where to look, or have one going spare.

So — what are you trying to track down, and where in the world are you?
