Be careful when you shop for LJ II's that you find out whether or not
the price includes a toner cartridge.  Many places are trying to
advertise the lowest prices and have unbundled the price of the toner
cartridge.  Also, retail computer stores here in the NY area have
prices on LJ II's that rival mail order.  I bought a LJ II in 1987
for $1700 with toner cart and tax at a retail computer store no more
than 3 miles away.  The peace of mind knowing that I could return it
was worth the extra $50.  The best price I've seen is $1565 (but I
don't know if that was "with or without").
