Honestly, if you're serious about getting one, call me and I'll order one ahead of time, at no charge to you. That is the fastest way to get one!

I'm sorry, I don't have that here. I believe it was in the mid 500's? If you sent me an email I'd be happy to check. It was only about $20 more than the stock C6.
