Thanks to Griz for the heads up on the scratch & dent deal from Air-N-Water, I grabbed one for $147.95
btw they are still in stock as I post this! http://www.air-n-water.com/product/aw-281e-bl.htm
Needless to say I was slightly worried how damaged it would be, but it showed up very quickly and had only a very very tiny dent on the back cover. It was basically new
Scrubbed down the inside with distilled white vinegar and let it dry overnight. There was a pretty strong plastic smell when i first got it but it is almost gone after 1 scrub down with vinegar and then a DW scrub/dry.
Box of baking soda is going in tonight and will run it for a couple days. More updates to come!
