SCORE!!!!
« on: February 10, 2009, 04:22:09 AM »
I just bought a NIB Stern WPT for 2450!  A company in Toronto Canada is blowing WPT and WoF out right now for 2990 CDN.  Shipping is very reasonable to the states.  In case anyone has interest:

Well Done ,There no word that describe opening a NIB.I'd document it on Video/photos.I left that experiences up to the kids (8,6,3)they set up a tripod & cameras etc And did a documentary on it it's quite funny .After all I'll leave it to them one day and they'll have the last laugh.

landed price is 2650 USD.  I live in the US about 6 hours away from the company closing them out.  They sold out of WPT machines today and have 30 WoF left.

Wow, why did they purchase so many WOF's?

That seems a big gamble on a questionable title.

They seem to be a huge retailer in Canada.  I would imagine they get volume discounts.  Which is great for hot titles ;-)

Damn, and here is me thinking about paying 2800US plus shipping for a Barbed Wire. Maybe I should look deeper.
