whoever the company is that sells these things knows what they're doing to generate sales. it seems like they are only on sale for a limited time and then go away for a few months. just keep an eye out, i checked the seller i bought mine from and there were none

thing is they are under 100 shipped when they pop up. but they do come in cycles. that's why this last time I finally bought mine, glad I did.
