vagro Member Registered: 11/05/07 Posts: 321 Loc: Argentina	I bought it in 2008 at Us$1490 in my country (Argentina) and they lowered the price during 2009 at Us$1295, something not very common around here where keyboards almost duplicate their regular prices in USA and always keep raising.

George Kaye Senior Member Registered: 11/24/99 Posts: 3305 Loc: Reseda, California USA	And they reduced the map on the PA500oriental for those who want a great middle eastern keyboard with dedicated oriental styles down from $1699 to $1299. The oriental version includes quarter tone tuning buttons on the left side of the keyboard and specially sampled middle eastern instruments and drum kits. All the stock voices and styles are still in this model. ------------------ George Kaye Kaye's Music Scene Reseda, California 818-881-5566 www.kayesmusicscene.com _________________________ George Kaye Kaye's Music Scene (Closed after 51 years) West Hills, California (Retired 2021)

George Kaye Senior Member Registered: 11/24/99 Posts: 3305 Loc: Reseda, California USA	I just received the January 14, 2010 price list from Korg and only the PA500 will have a reduction. Korg did this so that their PA500 and PA500oriental will line up exactly at Yamaha prices for the PSRS710 ($1099) and PSR700oriental ($1299.00). It makes sense because these are the closest models to each other from the two manufactures. ------------------ George Kaye Kaye's Music Scene Reseda, California 818-881-5566 www.kayesmusicscene.com _________________________ George Kaye Kaye's Music Scene (Closed after 51 years) West Hills, California (Retired 2021)

CoasterTim Member Registered: 06/10/00 Posts: 624 Loc: Allentown, PA, USA	You gotta love the KORG way of doing business...they go the extra mile to win and keep their customers. Last summer when I purchased my 500, my price was much less than $1499, and then Korg also gave me a $300 rebate, which put the final price comfortably below $1000. For me, it was the best price of any arranger I ever purchased - and this board is fantastic. So impressed was I that we purchased a 588 for our church a month later, and it's working out superbly for us.
