I'm in NYC, looking for a SB 9A locally to try to avoid high shipping costs. Shipping runs about $500 or so now, depending from where.

Anyone know any local sources around this area? Im looking to get a clean machine to do clock repair work with.

Bummer. That explains why those three 9" a models all sold in one day for $500. each. The worst part was the guy that somehow pocketed the ten or so tool holders that were not for sale.
