Default Pioneer A08XL anywhere?

Trying to find anywhere that sells the Pioneer A08XL atm and not having
a lot of luck.

Everywhere seems to have the 108 OEM drive, but no-one has the A08XL
retail with the much better looking front panel.

I do notice that a lot of sites are picturing the A08 when the drive
they're actually selling is the 108 which is a bit off.

Anyone know where I can get my hands on one? I'd settle for an A07 if I
could find one as the 16x and DL capability aren't important to me.

Help please

Sorry Toby, all I can save you is some legwork.

KustomPCs have been known to stock the XL models in the past, so I
contacted them to see if they would be getting the 108XL. They said
that they couldn't yet and didn't know if they would be able to get hold
of any.

I also contacted SVP (my favourite supplier) and asked if they could get
hold of one. They did a ring-around and also came up negative.

Good luck, and if you manage to source one, please let us know.

Any reference to trees or their herding is purely coincidental.

Thanks for your efforts all the same, if I do find one I'll let you
know.
