That is a great deal for a digital scanner. Wish the Shacks in my area had them that cheap. Although I already have one, I'd snap up another in a heartbeat at that price.
Curious about one thing about the receipt...what's a PIFF/License Fee?

Wow that's awesome!When i get it in my hand i will post the reciept, but i just got a 996xt for $124.99 at the santa clara radio shack(my father works at intel, he was able to go retrieve it).
I know there are 2 others in the area, Emmeryville and Pinole radioshacks both have 1 996xt per store. For those who do not know the area, that is on the san fransisco side of the bay.
Good Luck!
I'm out and about in Downtown Chicago. Stopped in the Michigan Ave. RS just to see what they had. Had one left for $264.97 so I decided to get it. When the guy rang me up, the price came up 174.94!! I knew I picked a good day to go downtown.

Damn, that sucks. You'd think the RS would do the adjustment rather than lose a sale. No wonder RS is in the toilet financially.Congratulations! The one I talked about above turned out to be a bust. The store where I found it for $262 was over an hour's drive away, so they sent it to my local store. The local store rang it up at just under $400; when I pointed out that the price wasn't right, the associate called the regional manager who said he would not do a price adjustment, it didn't matter what the other store's price was. :roll: I left it sitting on the counter. Oh well!
Looks like the price of the 996XT has been lowered to $124.99 at Radio Shack. Was able to find another one after calling about 15 other stores in Detroit metro area (I almost gave up but called several others and found one in Dearborn, MI store). Person indicated it was $350. I told him I bought one from another Radio Shack for $174.99 2 weeks ago - I asked him to scan it because I thought it would ring-up as $174.99 - he scanned it and it came-up $124.99! Told him to hold it for me and that I would be there in several hours to pick it up.
Was able to use a $10 off coupon so the final price I paid was around $117 total after tax. Brand new in box. Also, they gave me $30 in coupons for future use.
Not to bad for a scanner that will still be useful for awhile.
Again, just have to keep calling around to find that store that has one - ask them to check the back room - tell them it might be on clearance. If they quote a higher price ask them to scan it to see if a lower price comes-up.
I noticed the hand-helds (396Xt) are still in the $450-$475 range - they have not been reducing these prices to clear them out - not sure why (especially as the new Radio Shack scanners are coming into stock now)
Good luck everyone.
