Well it's obvious WHY - the 8880s, 8448s, and 3225s, at a minimum, have been on
deep clearance in the recent past in the UK.
What peeves me about this is that I asked in loc.uk for ANYONE to pick some up for
me at cost plus shipping back when it was known the 8880s were being dumped cheap
(I think around $50 USD, possibly less), as I have done for others all over the
world....and not ONE reply. You'd think some/anyone, while buying dozens of them,
could have picked some up for me. And some 8448s. (That being said, I can't seem
to find the post ANYWHERE on Lugnet, so it might not have gone through, which would
peeve me off even MORE, because if it had, I might have gotten an answer :-/ )
