Understandable!

They are bringing in more money if you sell them on eBay, but I didn't want to go that route (and I do a lot of selling on eBay). I guess I'm just leery of selling electronics.

My out-of pocket cost for my 700 was not that much as I used a great deal of Amazon rewards certificates that my husband acquired from his business credit cards. And I can truly say that I got my time & money's worth out of it. The $130 would've been a lot nicer, but I'm not one to argue. I should've let my husband make the call. He's much better at that sort of thing!
