Ok, so I get what an MSRP price is. Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price. What normally happens is the manufacturer puts out an MSRP, and then distributors/vendors sell it for a fair deal lower. So, if something had an MSRP of $1000, you could probably find it for around $800.
The M-Audio Microtrack II has an MSRP of $649.99 CDN. Long & Mcqaude is selling them for $250!!!!!
If anyone is interested in a good personal recorder, I would seriously suggest
checking it out.
