Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Thank you, Beth. They did not list the $65.00 meter, only this one as on sale and the much more expensive one. There was no identification on the site, so I assumed it was the $65.00 model. When it arrives, how do I identify whether it is the correct one? Jack Re: Re: Wayne Wayne, I just bought an oximeter from the company mentioned. They are on sale for $47.50 or were two days ago.
