It's not easy to find decent prices these days. I finally got an 8662A at a 
price I was willing to pay, but that was after watching listings for a year or 
more.

In the rare case where a good unit gets listed at a reasonable price, the other 
guy who wants to sell it at X usually bids against you and will drive the price 
up to X/2 or higher.  I have been able to find something I was looking for 
eventually, but it usually takes constant looking and a lot of time. It is 
definately much harder to find a deal on certain equipment than it was several 
years ago.
