Depends on your budget and what you consider cheap. What is your price range? The electronic spyders are ok and modest in price. The diablo mongoose 2, though discontinued is also ok. Can't say if any others can run off CO2 as well.

anything low end like that would be hard to find parts for, especially a mongoose. Trbo you must not know where to look because I know there's places that have parts for impys flying all over the place.

yep that's a decent price for a spyder imagine also. Pick it up. It'll treat your right so long as you keep it lubricated and the frame tight against the body.

matrix the key words there were "for cheap" i know i can still get parts but recently the wires on my noid went out, i was thinking about just getting a new one but i see no point in putting a new $70 noid in a marker thats worth around $100-$150, ebay used to be a goldmine of cheap parts but now you can only find a few when someone is parting out their old impy, i got a new board from a site that was blowing them out for $10 a year and a half ago.
i never said you cant find them, its just, harder and generally more expensive than a marker thats in production, plus i like to be able to find the small stuff at the local shop, if the marker is discontinued chances are you cant find them there

sony? er, sure...
I'm positive there's a forum dedicated to trading and swapping old smart parts markers. I use ICD-owners.com to supply my bushys needs. A plethora of parts flying around constantly for a reasonable price.
