Amazon drives me crazy. But I so enjoy my Aguilar DB112s! Remember that one? :smug:

Do I? It's the reason there's 2 amazon threads! But yes, their pricing fluctuations will make you insane if you're watching an item.

That's about $1250 with CA sales tax. So, I could buy it, play it for awhile, then sell it on TB for $900, maybe even $800. Less PayPay fees and FredEx, so knock off another $75. Sounds like a plan! :p

JK, these are great jazzes, thanks for posting. Amazingly, the price is still the same!!

Well, I DID preface it by saying not the best deal ever... Illinois doesn't have sales tax on amazon (yet), so I didn't even think of that.

Amazon sales tax would be a downer though- trying to convince the Mrs we should move to San Diego, and that's not a good selling point.

Amazon charges sales tax to Illinois residents for products sold through the Prime program. It does not charge tax for third party vendors.

That's partially true. If the third party vendor is located in the same state as the buyer, then they would also charge sales tax.

Here's the page that lists which states in which Amazon has to collect sales tax:

I don't have much to add except that they are down to $79.95 now.

If I had any need, I'd be all over it.

Since I forgot this was the discussion thread I will add some commentary. The last time these pickups hit this price range was earlier this year and bounced up at abot this point. Since they have been dropping only about 80 cents a day now that pretty much confirms it. Get it before you regret it.
