Yes, they get you on shipping.. $12.34 for shipping in the states for
UPS ground for a few ounces? That's more than the last couple of USR's I bought
of ebay.
As for 'new' versus 'used', I've had great luck with modems off ebay.
Modems either work or they don't, not much to wear out. (lightning excluded)
Once you get your modem, I suspect you will be using hylafax as your
fax receiving package. When you do, also look into "Avantfax" web front-end to
hylafax and tesseract for OCR of incoming faxes. Both work excellent. I have
had the combination running on an old AMD K6-2 450 as my office fax server for
a year or so and love it. I have a quick setup page for the combination
(somewhat openSuSE related) at:
