I'm in the same boat. Or, maybe I'm a little lazy... Anyway, I just ordered a new Pool Rover Jr. off of Ebay. It was $268.00 with free shipping. I am looking forward to getting it later in the week. All the reviews that I've read on it were positive.
Look at it like I did, with all of the money you are saving using BBB, you can spend a little on something neat to play with.
Hope this helps!
