Thanks Jim Big Smile [:D]

Tricky part is locating the B unit at a reasonable price.

DRAT! I found one on E-Bay but also another guy that doesn't take PayPal. He's rated 100%. I may take the gamble if it doesn't get too expensive.

Let me guess, he only takes Money Orders or Personal Checks and will only ship after the check has cleared?

His feedback may be 100%, but it he only has a feedback score of under 100 then I would be concerned...

PAYMENT : I DO NOT TAKE PAY PAL.  Money Order or Cashier's check only. For international bids, please wait for my invoice . I expect payment within 10 days of Closing.

He has a LOT of transactions...1195. Probably worth the risk. He also ships UPS...which is a BIG plus for me. US Mail sux big time in my area.
