Again, thanks much!
Mercari.com also – sometimes – has good prices on used Sonys. Right now they've got a Sony T1 (supposedly in good condition) for $20 plus $5 s/h.

They also have a supposedly brand new one (in the box) for $40 plus $5 s/h.

The second one has been there a while. Before I found out about Mercari, some kid sold an almost unused Sony T1 there for $4 plus $4 s/h. He said "he never used it."

So it's definitely worth watching these outfits, especially if you want to fill up your house Sony Readers.

On the down side, I just found out today that the brand new (navy blue) PRS-505 I paid $12 for (including s/h) on March 29th was "damaged." Which means, to a cynical old geezer like me, that the seller probably got a better price somewhere else.
