on Ebay, quite a great scanner, Alpha Tag, but not computer controlled. I had one for 3 years great scanner.
would expect to pay up to $160 for one of these.

or another one as buy now, put it would appear to be pick up only.

Rusti,

I was in Toowoomba last week and saw a UBCT9 on special at Dick Smiths Store in Grand Central shopping centre.

The price was $299 (Managers Special)

This is brand new with full warranty.

One of the best deals I have seen in recent times.

I use a UBC9000xlt here at home and am very happy with it. There is no trunking up here or digital so no need to get too carried away with what you buy.
