WOW. Miss Vegas, Target, $500.
Does anyone find this a bit strange? Sold at Target, way overpriced, only hobby-grade product they sell.
I just read it's only available online, but anyways... weird...

Actually, A friend of mine saw that and he wrote a review. I'm still waiting t see if it gets posted.
I'd feel sorry for the beginner expecting this to be an easy thing to run after reading the notes. Lol they forgot it also captures the frustrations.

I'm still checking to see if that review's been posted yet. I wonder if they comb though it before they'll allow anything to be posted. 
Ahh the corruption within big business chains.
EDIT!
You could ALMOST get 2 for that price, but tower charges almost an arm and a leg for shipping. An arm and half a leg to be precise.

I don't know exactly what the shipping charges are, but last year I ordered a macs 2.5 for my nitrovee (lhs ran out) as well as the gasket set for it, and shipping alone cost me $40 The thing weighed under 2lbs WITH the box. And Don't you have to pay to be a club member? Haha I keep getting thecatalogue but I never really look through it. Maybe I should.

Yup and I can just see how many people buy into this and then take it out to the local pond or forrest preserve and get shut down pretty hard, let alone no store customer help, oops does the instructions come in different languages?
