    Make an offer, but otherwise you'll have quite a hefty price at the end.

    Remember, you also pay a duty via the kind folks at Customs... and you'll end up over $100 if you use the buy it now.

    Ain't Michigan close to Canada. You could just drive the wagon up and grab the whole boxload and bring back to the States. :laugh:

    I keep myself OUT of Quebec though :p

    They might also get suspicious at the border and ask what all 50 of the drives are for too :D

    It "sounds" like a good deal but $75 for a CDROM drive isn't a steal.. Its pretty close to average! If he offered a good discount on a large quantity, then it might be worthwhile

    I just got my 7 that I bought from the guy in Canada. They look like they have been in a padded box since new... They look BRAND NEW... Not a scratch or scuff on them. I paid $60 each for 7 of them and wish I would have bought 20 of them now!
