I thought I had a deal on an airplane so I ended up buying this 396 on Ebay:

I paid $840 plus $20 shipping including an AirGizmo panel dock (which by itself is close to $100). It has the direct power connection to airplane power, not the cigarette lighter adaptor. Also it has a filter on the cord for the audio out and an usb extension for the XM antenna. Of course both the external gps antenna and XM antennas came with it. He gave me a quick reference guide for a 496 with it.

What it does NOT have is the small fold-up antenna, and mounts or any manuals. The manuals are available for download on garmin.com. It works perfectly, but the airplane I was going to buy had a perfect spot for it on the panel, so it would have required minimal expense to install. 

I was going to list it on Ebay this week and see what it will bring, some have been going for $1100 - $1200 and some 496's for over $1500. If anyone on the forum wants it, you can have it for what I have into it. If you pay $860, I'll ship it to you free.

Let me know if you have any questions.
