Too true, tru blu. My unit has absolutely no scratches or blemishes. It looks and as far as I'm aware of, operates flawlessly.

$499 and no shipping charges ? Ridiculous to pass up IMHO. Think of what you could buy with the other $200 ! I'm not guaranteeing that your unit won't have a scratch or a ding somewhere, but if you can live with possibly having one, for that price I think it's worth the risk.
