    Shipping reduced to $98... Its a bit cheap and deceptive to charge a low price and have an outrageous shipping price.

    Yeah, I'm sure. And yes, I know everybody bids last minute. I do it too. It just caught my eye because of the x9000 and not having an opening bid of $1200 or so, like a lot of the other ones I've seen on fleabay. There was somebody posting here that let a 9000 equipped machine slip by for like $1400 or so, and this one has the potential to be affordable.
