From Hardly Normal $120.00 and it seems OK , I have bags of negs that the ex gave me after the judge told her to so she was a bit nasty and just emptied all of them into one big bag with NOOO labels so its a duck shoot for me.

I bought my scanner a few weeks ago from Aldi for around $65 and even though it's a relative cheapie it looks the goods. I haven't used it as yet but my friends daughter borrowed it and reckons it works a treat. I don't understand this stuff all that well but for what it's worth it's 5.0 megapix and 1800 dpi.
I have hundreds of slides from my days in the USA including many shots from when I worked in the Supercross business. There are also some great slides from the USGP at Carlsbad scanning five years including one particular photo that I remember of a naked Adolph Weil being hosed down between motos in the 100+ degree heat. My stuffs in storage and it'll take me a couple of weeks to getting to it but this thread has prompted me to get my arse into gear and do it.
