I bought mine on Cascade GPS for 1178 delivered. When I went to look for it tonight, they were at 1499 so someone from Humminbird must have put the screws to them. Looks like it was a very good price. That said, I found Cascade by doing a search on Humminbird 898 and sorting by best price. The only thing I check is to make sure enough people have commented on the service.
