Nathan,
There's one advertised in Christies next camera auction in London, early   
June I think, it's boxed in as new condition with warranty card and they   
have an estimate price on it of 300-500 GBP! Make an offer, 'bound to be   
less than a new one, the company have a web site and shipping facilities.
