The G16/24s series fostex are nice machines, though $2000 is pretty
steep even for a minty one. I paid a fraction of that for a minty G16s.
You never know though, ebay can be friendly. good luck

It means "in mint condition." This is the same sort of etymology that
brought "LDC" and "SDC" to this newsgroup.

And audio gear isn't 'minted' anyway like money is.

How about we all start using :
FC = Factory Condition
NFC = Near Factory Condition
