To add fuel to the argument of owning two scanners, ONSALE.COM, another
web auction house regularly has refurbished HP 4c and HP 5p scanners on
the auction block. The units generally go for around $110.00 - $140.00
plus shipping and come with a one-year warranty from HP. This greatly
beats their retail price before they were discontinued. I'm not trying
to promote ONSALE or any other auction site, just letting you know what
I've found. PS I bought my 5p there for $110.00 + shipping and three of
my co-workers have bought HP scanners there too. So far I have heard no
complaints.
