Epson V700 is good.
Think you can save some money by getting the Epson 4990. It's good enough.
I got mine from Sim Lim.

of cos im sure, it was one of the high end scanners before v700 was launched.

i think the epson would be a better buy. i got mine for almost $800 but that was almost a year and a half ago.
