|
|
I am looking for the Korean version of the classifieds..
I want to find a large website/newspaper where Koreans sell their used instruments to potential Koreans. Do such sites exist?
There aren't enough people on Dave's and Craigslist who sell instruments.
What I mean by instruments: Accordions, Violins, Piano's, etc etc
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks |

You must not be in Korea, cause that's not how Koreans think. There is one of everything, no variety at most stores. You're lucky if you can find a comb in the shape of a regular comb back home. |

I don't know myself where you could get your information, but if you could go to a music hagwon, or a university or college where they teach music, then there they might be able to to tell where to look. |

I don't think there is a service like that in Korea. You will see posts here and there on various sites, but that is as close as it will be. |

not true... they do exist, obviously all in korean though... i was totally shocked to see them... tons of gear... i will get the web addresses from the friend who showed me them... he owns a cafe in hongdae that i go to... he wrote them down for me but i washed the clothes they were in... i will stop by his place this weekend and get them again...
you will need someone to work out the translation, unless of course, your korean is up to scratch. |

mnshome.com and mule.co.kr both have used marketplaces, I think.
Also there's the used electronics jumble of shops near Sindang Station. Go out exit 1 or 2, sorry can't remember which, turn down a side street and go a few blocks. Most of it's old stereo systems and the like, but a few places sell guitars and mixing boards. I picked up a pretty solid Samick bass there for 90k a couple of years ago. I wouldn't sell it for twice that. |
