Just keep a steady eye on ebay. I checked frequently, and one night saw one that had just been listed for a buy it now price of $79. Jumped right on it. When It arrived the battery was unopened and it still had the little plastic clear protective sheet on the display. Looks and performs like new. Guess the story was that the lady that bought it just didnt feel like trying to figure out how to use it anymore. The only things that didnt come with it were the little leatherette pouch and the cheap ass headphones. Already done a couple of recordings with it and am very pleased. So glad to be rid of the DAT!
