I have on occasion seen free shipping, 20% off, and other discounts being offered at various places.

I've seen that too - or occasionally I get sent a coupon from a store I shopped at in the past.

Too often there is some kind of minimum purchase amount necessary - and it's always more than I'll be spending.

Yeah, I hate when that happens. There's one store (Man I miss my bookmarks!) that gives 20% off if you order on Monday.

I hope you can remember what store that is!

I don't think I'll buy anything for the scoot without checking with you first. 

You seem to be the master of the deal. :D

LOL! I love finding a Good Deal...I really miss my faster computer...I can't find much with this slow one. I hate even trying because it's frustrating. Might have to try to fix it one of these days. :)

Yes, you need to fix the fast computer - I'm gonna need a new exhaust in spring so you'll need to be up and running at high speed.

Oh boy, I better get motivated then. I hate to admit it, but when this one died on me I let it sit on the floor for a year before I even thought about looking at it. :D

My son mentioned putting a different operating system on the other one. I've never done that, though. I don't know if I could do it. He said it wouldn't be Windows, but I don't care as long as I can use it and actually do things.

I know people who use open source stuff and are much happier.

Myself, I switched to Apple and don't have any plans to go back to Microsoft.

I think it just needs the drivers, but if I found out it was easy to put another system on it, I wouldn't need to use the microsh*t either!

That was the killer with the PC - all the updates and such ended up conflicting with something and messing up the computer.

You got that right, oswaldters, not to mention it's a PITA...took 2 days to get this thing upgraded to Service Pack 3. Then it said I had 76 more updates I needed! ???

Hi, bat. Is this the technigas one we're talking about?

http://www.ecrater.com/p/6225705/tecnigas-rs-ii-for-yamaha-zuma-50

I am wondering if this one is the same thing because it does not list your scoot. Maybe as long as it says rs2 it's the same??

http://www.spi-parts.com/tecnigas/tecnigas-rs-ii.html

If these are the same and this is one of the ones you want a price on let me know. Thanks.
