(I can only post to c.s.a so please forgive the choice of areas.)
 
I'm in the market for an A2000, and given that Canadian retail is
about $1800 with 1MB RAM, no HD, and no monitor, plus the fact
that we have no educational discount plan here, I'm considering
buying used.  What is a reasonable price for a bare-bones A2000?
I'm upgrading from a 500, so most of my peripherals (except HD 
controller) will go with me.  
 
If I do decide to buy, is there any SAFE way to make a private deal
over the border?  Noone would want to send hardware before receiving
a cheque, and I don't want to do the reverse.  Any ideas?
 
Do you want to hear about the $6000.00+ A3000s in Canada?  I thought not.
 
Thanks,
Dave Plummer
