Bump for a hellatious deal! After taxes and shipping you cant even get IC reflectors for under a $100 let alone the bulbs, standoffs&endcaps! Well over a $200 value!

I completely agree its a deal. You can pick up a brand new 660 for $135 and that gets you a 4x54 T5 retro for about $120 less than retail. Wish I had the cash to do it...but I already have a 6x54...

this deal won't last long
