Is this as good of a deal as I think it is?

Link removed, elgecko has provided my answer... mods please delete thread

The last retail price i can find is a 2009 price from Amazon.com at 838.00

Kind of seems too good to be true....

If I would have seen that I would have grabbed it.
If it's not what they say you could have gotten your money back.

It does seem to be an exceptional birthday gift!
 
thanks....definitely not my area of expertise
 
Can you at least tell us how much it cost?
 
less then 150 in box and with all accessories, unused birthday gift

;-)
 
But of course, when i found the retail price was over 800 I figured I couldnt lose anything...

When its a "only one" type of deal, to post someting like that in public w/o locking it in is just bad mojo
Now, if elgecko's advice had been negative, I would simply turn around and relisted it on ebay after it arrived.

Removing the link is also prudent. Ive run across a really good deal before only to have someone email the seller and offer a better price after the auction was completed (assumed). Then recieve an email saying " sorry the item was sold on another website" and my paypal refunded.

You gotta play the game...
 
Butch,
Haven't they contacted you yet?
I offered them more and they are sending it to me.....
