Richer Sounds (UK) are doing refurbished Sharp 701/2s for 59.99 GBP (which
is probably about $100) at the moment, if you take in their ad from this
month's What HiFi. It says they're cosmetically blemished and missing some
accessories, but for 60 quid for a decent recorder like the 702, you can't
go wrong :)
Oh, and I don't work for Richer Sounds, btw :)
Chrz,
Wrighty
