I live in Canada, so a K4 no ads is $109 here. I do live close enough to the state line to shop in the US, though I don't have a passport, so I must rely on DH to pick up my purchases @ the parcel handling service.

I got this for $55 for a K4- no ads- a silicone skin & a case (hoping it's AMZN)

BUT after shipping ($8) & now the extra warranty ($11) I just bought, I think it's now exactly "half a dozen of one, six of another". No savings. Just a free silicone skin and cover...

I could have bought a K4 refurb with ads from AMZN for $70 with free shipping & had factory warranty. I just hope I have as good of luck with my purchase, as you have had with yours, GeekMaster.

Again, thanks to all for your time & advice.
I will post on this thread to let you all know the outcome, even if it proves embarrassing.....
