I have seen prices in this catagory from numerous mail-order houses.
The RasterOps 264 card, which drives the Apple 13" color monitor and
lists for $995 retail can be bought from a local ComputerLand for
$705, so a $6 saving really isn't so "WOW!". Recently picked up a 
Quantum 80 from MacLand for the exact same price.

I have no experience with this particular vendor, so I can't comment
on the service. Remember, when calling, ask specifically about shipping
dates, when your card will be billed, etc.
