If anyone lives near Abilene, the Sears Outlet is selling a 36" GE induction top for under $700. Website says it is new in the box. Retail on that cooktop is $1800, so dunno what's up. Must be a special order refused, but that price is waaay lower than the reconditioned tops at other stores. I'm looking for a 30" and live hundreds of miles away but maybe someone else can score.
