i bought a scratch n dent unit over a year ago, i think it was the same deal your all getting now with ebay except i called the company and got mine that way. they called it an open box and it was just that, previously used and bottom corners dented a little from being used.
a minor electrical repair to the temp controller and the unit has been performing flawlessly. i am very happy with this fridge and i think you all will be as well.

Ok, I just bought the 63qt. Not sure if it's the last one? Now I just hope I don't have a problem shipping to a US address instead of direct to me in Canada. Where are they located?

Yeah, they wouldn't take a Paypal from me, but they did let me charge it direct to my credit card, and I am trying to get it shipped to Lucky8 LLC in Buffalo because I have to go down there to pick up a transmission and other stuff from him anyway. Hopefully they don't give any trouble.

US shipping...

Rob,

If you need to, I am in Rochester, NY, you can ship to my house and grab it when you go to Buffalo. (Although I will not be back till July 12, but I have a house sitter)

PS folks check these out ASAP, I bought a open box from CA, and it didn't work on 12v, so they shipped me a brand new one, it didn't work at all. It was time to leave on my 2 week Nova Scotia trip, so I just returned it for credit... I wanted it for the trip. : (

I will say, the customer service folks at CA and Edgestar were GREAT, very helpful, friendly and tried hard to get me set up, I just ran out of time to wait for a 3rd fridge!

YMMV

Have any of you received shipping verification for your fridge yet? It has been several days since I ordered mine and still no shipping notice.....

It's definitely not panic time, but delays in shipping are always frustrating.

It's nice that so many of us purchased this fridge...we will have strength in numbers if problems start to pop up.

Some good information about Edgestar 43qt power consumption here:
http://www.mikenchell.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=471759&sid=2ffaa7ff6821319421e7793ddd2d73d1

Here's the money post:

The 43 qt EdgeStar has been sitting in my office for a couple of weeks now. I decided to time the cycles today in order to get some idea of the power usage.

The parameters: 2 gallon jugs of drinking water and 2 12 oz. colas (roughly half capacity), 72� office, set to 35�, plugged into a/c.

I timed it for 2 complete cycles. Both times the compressor came on when the temp reached 36� and ran for about 13 minutes, which brought it down to 32�. It then took 90 minutes the first time and 80 the second time for the temp to increase to 36� and turn the compressor back on. So the compressor ran for 26 minutes out of 3:16. That's about 14% of the time and with a 5.5 amp draw that works out to 18.1 Amp Hours per 24 hours.
