My source for the Bargman 99 is indeed out of pocket at Disney Land with his
kids. He returns Sunday and will call me on Monday. I kept the conversation
very short. I will pass his direct contact information to the list as I have
no interest other than my own end-use. I need to verify his contact info and
allow a requested brief time to catch up from vacation. I expect to post his
info on Monday.
The good news is that I was able to contact him, you will be able to
directly contact him, he is still typically about half the cost of what you
have been seeing, and has plenty of remaining stock. I expect to pay a
little more than before and I expect shipping cost will be more than before.
He knows the market then and now, but is still not greedy. I know from past
interactions he likes email communication to keep phone expenses at a
minimum.
I have already given a detailed description of what he has, what I bought,
and how pleased I am with what I purchased. I found this person to be very
nice, very generous, very professional and extremely honest. Be sure to read
my description about a defect. It cannot be seen without removing the lens,
looking inside, and even then has to be purposely looked for. He has been
very concerned about that defect.
