To Michael... If you are looking for prices, fine, but if you want offers, I beleive you are off topic for this group. "Best offer" deals belong in lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade.

Not sure where to put this, is there a .clsotw group? Anyhoo, I like just being able to press a button to vote, instead of sending an email.
