Default Lanier Extra 330 94" 3 Part -- Lucky enough to get one?

In lieu of reading the other threads.... Any body lucky enough to get one of this before the closeout??

I got mine in about 2 weeks ago and decided that I should get another just to have for parts.. Fortunately I ordered the second one about 24hrs before they discontinued the kit! Bought the DA-85 to complete this setup -- she's a bit thinner and shorter in length by 4 inches up against the Edge.

So new that it's not even on Lanier's website. Check it out Anybody interested in the other closeouts better jump quick!

If I remember correctly, that plane was a complete and udder steal. Was it 100 dollars for the kit?

Until anyone can confirm that they got one for $80, I have to think that it was a typo!

I contacted Tower this morning and they said that the email was a mistake and the price on the kit was $299 (Thank god, I thought I spent more than I needed to..lol)

I got one as well. Had to tell the "Boss" that all the current stuff I have in my two 30%'s will fit and "I can just swap it over"
I am going straight to H*LL!!

LOL no kidding! I didn't even tell the wife and she happened to be off on the day that UPS bought the first one...... Fortunately I caught UPS today when they dropped off my second one and I don't even think the wife knows...
