I am considering buying a Sony VPL CS-5 for $450 Canadian. The problem is, it needs a new Lamp, which I understand can range from $400+. Is that a decent deal or is there somewhere else that I could buy a 2nd hand projector for a better price?

It will be used for movies/boxing events twice a week or so. BTW, this is the first time the lamp has needed to be replaced, and there haven't been any problems with the projector so far.

Thank you.
