        There was a 5004A that sold for $17 yesterday! I was gonna bid on
just for
        the hell of it, even though I have one.. thats too cheap.

>>>> CHEAP???
                        I would have bid on it but the Yankee wanted $25
handling fee
                        plus shipping costs to send it to the Great White
North. There's
                        no way I'd pay twice to three times the item cost
for "s/h" even at a low
                        ball of $16.01. Why oh why is it such a hassle in
some people's minds
                        to ship something up here?

                          SPW (frustrated and freezing my a$$ of in all this
snow; at least
                        my WG6100's are cool and don't need fans -> vector
content)
