Just before I pull the trigger on one of the two I've found . . . .

I'm so impressed with the little Blackstar HT5R that I bought on behalf of my nephew & bandmate Joshua, that I've decided to buy one for myself . . . . I genuinely only paid £100 for his amp ( which was a steal )  and its in immaculate condition.

The two Amps that I've spotted, fairly local to where I live, are both around £140 which is probably what I was expecting to pay . . . If anyone on the Forum has one for sale with Reverb, in good nick, within "my" budget and within sensible driving distance from me in Oldham / Rochdale, please get in touch as I'd be happier buying from the Forum than from someone on Facebook Market Place or eBay . . . 
Id just like to point out that, despite all the video and DNA evidence, it genuinely wasn't me, your Honour  !

    I played a small festival over the summer, there was a mix up about what backline was provided and I ended up borrowing one of these for the gig at the last minute. It wasn't quite loud enough on its own (small gig, but outdoors) but I set my compressor as a clean boost into the clean channel (everything on the amp on 10 except the reverb, couldn't remember what to do with the ISF knob so just left it in the middle.) and it was then easily loud enough and sounded great. A bit more crunchy than I'd normally go for but actually really enjoyable to play. Especially turned up full like that. 

    That doesn't help you, sorry. It just reminded me about it. Hope you find one!
