Jerry, Why don't you try to get one on E-bay? Thet go for about $300
-$400 us dollars, and even with the shipping it'll still be much
cheaper than Belgian prices. I used to live in the Nederlands, so I
realise how expensive gear can be in your part of the world. People
tell alot of horror stories about e-bay, but I've gotten lot's of
great deals on there, you just have to really check out the sellers
and really know alot about what you are bidding on. Good luck,
Viktor
