fishboi Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 if they have them ill still have them :lol: :lol: $500 is nothing! last i heard of them yes they still have them but just not offered to the public as once they found out there was a 2 year waiting list [which i believe they are on] to get anymore they decided to keep for them self. [just looking back that was May 2005 so its only another 9 month?? before they get more ] why not give them a call and make an offer they couldnt refuse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
