Got my bird and all the accesories yesterday, I really couldn't find anything much about this outfit on the web, but the prices was the lowest I found by far. everything is new unopened and fresh,,guessing from the serial number the unit was made May 2nd of this year. But like I said I took the protective route and paid via paypal but at $1216.04 for a complete with transducer 898c si, its a steal
