That's one of the reasons I subscribed to this mailing list, not to mention had a saved eBay search.  It took me a few months or so, maybe a year, I forget... and I think I paid around about the original brand-new price too, I forget... but it was totally worth it.

Buying rare things on eBay has taught me patience. :)

It also helps if your partner is totally awesome and knows how to replace the battery, which requires a little soldering. :)
