Wow
o_O
I'd expect a price like that on eBay, but not B&N.

That's what i was thinking) i hope other Area's that sell the scanner don't spike the prices to levels like what i seen there.. If they do that's more than a big ouch to deal with.. Ra

Why would that be sad, fireant? Let the buyer beware! If Barnes & Noble can get someone to buy at that price then more power to them.

Barnes and Noble is in some financial trouble, so they are trying to expand their market. It's pretty obvious that they not only don't know the scanner market, they think that there is a client base that wants a scanner, but doesn't know how to shop for one.
Just another area where they are failing against Amazon.

Re: BCD 996xt @ Barns & Noble
Looking at the link, that is a marketplace seller. So it it's essentially an eBay price.

That's nothing, saw an online store today that had it for over three grand. The 996XT seems to always be on backorder when I need to buy one for a customer. :-(

Barnes & Noble, huh? Hmmm... seems you should be able to buy a cup of Starbucks, and sit and listen to the scanner all you want without buying it.

Since you are a Premium Subscriber here, have you tried importing directly from the RR database?
If you are programming items that are in the RR database, you don't need to use EZ grab, you can use Freescan to import directly from the database.

Not sad at all. I cant feel sorry for people who have soo much money they dont see a need to shop around. Or people who dont research something theyre about to spend a grand on.. Cant feel bad for those people either..

Them Prices at The shack are really good and hard to beat) And if you can Qualify for there Shack Card you can get 6 or 12 months of No interest and there's a good possibility they can throw in 10% off. They include Military discounts.. the only thing i wished the had more Antenna choices but that 800 is a good one and the one i'm using on my 396 Ra |
