Anybody know where to buy a PRS 950 in topnotch condition?

Thanks!

eBay is probably the only choice to find used ones. I've bought a few used 350s and mostly have been very happy with them, although one blue one had a really badly damaged screen, even had 2 gouges in it (have no idea how they managed to do it). But since I was dying for a blue one, I swapped out the screen. A few of them were in pristine condition and came with the cover.

Just email the seller with any questions, specifically asking about any scratches or anything visible on the screen. Ask about the stylus also if that's important to you. The damaged blue one also had no stylus, I'm sure they broke it. I'm not sure if the replacement stylus that chris77586 set up for us Sony users will also fit the 950.

Edit: You might also check the Flea Market section here towards the bottom of the forum and check if anyone is selling one, or make a post inquiring about buying one.

In fact, one recently was posted here for sale with a very nice cover:

I have one I'm considering selling. Bought new, in beautiful shape, has Oberon leather cover in navy blue, plus a light. Probably can't photograph or pack for shipment for a week or two though as I sprained my ankle badly on Friday and am on crutches at the moment.

G, Thanks!

I already found one from an original owner who had only used it sporadically. It came with case, recharger, cable, memory card.

So far, it is working perfectly.

I'm glad to have two 950s now.

If you have something to sell, please post it only in the Flea Market.
