I am not a haggler either. That drive is $299 and in stock at Transinternational. Here's why I think your asking price is a little too high and no one is going to bite. If I were to buy the drive from you there is no warranty. Even if Apple somehow extended the warranty to a 3rd person it would only be a 1 year warranty. If I were to buy that exact same drive from Transinternational I would get a 3 year warranty. So as it stands it's not worth the risk. Now if you dropped your asking price to $180 or so I'd buy it. -- ============================================================== Kyle H.
