Thanks for the tip!

I doubt I would have stumbled across that listing, even with all the time I spend browsing ebay :wink:

I'll be watching this auction closely, as that's not too far from "home".

Thanks again!

Lost out on them. My internet went out with one hour left on the bidding and I got hammered. Oh well. :D
