@Smithy check out Amazon warehouse deals. I bought mine there for $85.00 (7-in-1 model) with free shipping . It only had a tiny dent, less than 1 mm, in the back, had all original packaging, and came with full manufacturer's warranty as well as Amazon 30 day return policy
Not that I'm trying to be an enabler or anything
