FS: Epson Perfection 2450 Photo Flatbed Scanner, no shipping

[studiocygnet]

I know there are some folks in TPF that have talked about scanning old film. I just upgraded to the V750, so I'm selling my older Epson scanner. I figure I'll put it here first, and if no bites here, it goes public. First here is the description from the Epson promo material:

Technical Details
2400 x 4800 dpi hardware resolution with Micro Step Drive technology
48-bit color depth
Built-in transparency unit for transparencies, slides, and negatives
With carriers for 120/220 film, 4x5 negs, 35mm film, and 35mm mounted slides
Software bundle includes LaserSoft SilverFast SE
USB 2.0 and IEEE 1394 Firewire connectivity; PC and Mac compatible

The Epson Perfection 2450 brings professional-quality scanning options right to your home desktop. Possibilities include batch scanning of film negatives, as well as a number of settings that let your determine specific priorities for each project. The 2450 is an excellent choice for the devoted photographer who demands both high-speed processing and exquisite attention to detail.
Designed to process slides, photos, filmstrips, and transparencies, as well as plain old text, this scanner offers stunning 2,400 x 4,800 dpi resolution. Equipped with a 4-by-9-inch transparency unit, it also delivers 48-bit color at remarkable speed, processing full-color graphics at 11 milliseconds per line. The built-in zoom feature provides a range of 50 to 200 percent, supplying plenty of options for enlarging or cropping your final prints. A cold cathode ray lamp is used as the light source, an economical choice that provides hours of efficient, powerful lighting. Maximum scan size is 8.5 x 11 inches, large enough for most office documents as well as your favorite vacation shots.
The USB 2.0 and FireWire (IEEE 1394) connectivity ensure the fastest data transfers, as well as rapid setup; you'll be scanning in just a few minutes. The included software bundle includes LaserSoft SilverFast SE, Epson Smart Panel, and Epson Twain.

It's very clean, the glass is clean both sides, comes with everything it had new except the Adobe Elements CD, which I probably gave away since I already had photoshop. Also includes Firewire and USB cables.
All of the film photographs you've seen from me on this site were scanned here. If I remember, it cost me just under $400 new. I found wildly disparate used prices on the internet, some as high as the new price, and one was as low as $50, but then shipping was $24 and it didn't have the negative carriers.

So I'm going to go for $125 OBO picked up, or I can meet you when I travel in TX.
(I'll be in San Antonio Thursday, 4/15, for example)
Here are some quick snaps of the actual scanner in question.

Well I know there were a couple folks looking for inexpensive scanners for film in the darkroom section a while ago. But no responses yet.
OK, how about $100?
