Exactly what the title says. Looking for one in good condition and preferably in the USA or Canada. PM me if anyone has one available and maybe we can work out a deal.

Hey Scott,
Used megs tend to sell for near new prices and you get stuck with mods and accessories that someone else wanted originally.
I would suggest getting a new one and get it exactly the way you want it.
You know you won't leave it stock anyway

Over the past few months I've seen them go from $6500-$7500. Correct me if I'm wrong a new one cost more than $8300 + 3% or 4% if you use credit card. While I'm at it might as well add another grand for extras so I'm looking at $9000- $10000. So if I were to spend $$2500- $3000 less that would leave more money for other things.

I have never seen a used one go that cheap. A stripped new meg would run $7800 without tanks, 1st stages etc which I am sure you have a few of yourself.

You just never know Scott. Someone out there will need to unload their Meg (don't understand that part) for a good price for you. Might even be able to piece it together from different sellers.

You have not looked hard enough...

I bought mine within that range, comes with 2 can (full, mini), 2 wings, 2 backplates, 2 sets of tank holders, loads of spares...

Scott, just wait it out if you can. A good deal will come sooner or later...

Thanks, I'm going to do that. I've passed the opportunity twice to pick one up within that price range. I'm sure sooner or later one will become available.
