Okay, no problem, that's reasonable.  But, don't say
"yada-yada-yada  w/Bkt  yada-yada $400,- plus shipping cost"
                ^^^^^^
if it doesn't include the bracket.  That's the part that
was confusing.

I know Sun's pretty proud of those brackets.  When I
checked about two years ago, I think they wanted $25 each.
