Is it a good deal?

As of July 2026, a used Roland TR-808 in the UK typically sells for around £686. Anything under £261 is a strong price worth moving on quickly; between £261 and £4,837 is the fair-market zone; above £4,837 you're paying a premium that usually only makes sense for mint or boxed examples.
