Without trawling back through the past couple of years messages I have - I paid a substantial amount for my PT-540 from a fellow member here on the forum.
At the time I thought I was very lucky to be offered it and still do!
I'm sure if you're prepared to sit and wait another will eventually turn up cheaper. But these days I just want to move on with my life and usually grab it (within reason obviously ) then kick myself later!!
I found that my spending actually goes up when holding out for a particular model because through constant searching you'll stumble onto something you hadn't seen or even considered and as is often the case buy that too!!
The bulk of my collection is from exactly that scenario.....impulse buys!
If you're set on the PT-540 - which you obviously are, make the seller a realistic offer and move on.
That's my advice and is what I'd do.

I don't claim to know it all, but what I do know is right.
