Best place besides ebay for Escort Passport 8500?

I looked on ebay and the sellers that have some listed have bad feedback. So I'm looking for an alternative. Anyone know of a place I can order the detector for abour 250-260?

I bought one for a friend of mine at www.sbhcorp.com. They had a great price (dont remember exact number) and it came quickly.

After waiting and waiting..I finally found one on ebay..brand new $265 shipped. I have never seen anything lower..shipped. You'll see $255 or $250, but $15 to $20 for shipping.

Ordered from SBH for ~$250 and ~$10 shipping. Sounds like it is one guy who speaks poor english working out of his house , website looks very profesional though. The SBH website says something about a new version with improved Ka band sensitivity, is this true? I know he newer versions have a port to plug in the lasar jammer, if the prices on that come down I may add one. My only concern on ebay is they may be an older version without the port for the laser jammer or the new improved sensitivity. I don't think you could get a better deal on e-bay anyway.

Edit - fixed typo, everyone can relax now

i just got mine on e-bay last week for 225 shipping included, E-bay pulled the guys auction i guess for using copyrighted pix, So the guy e-mailed me an said 225 shipped so i jumped on it, i'm waiting for it in the mail now, he shipped it off 3 days ago and i'm tracking it, i can't wait, i've gotten over 2k in speeding tickets in the past 3 years its so worth 225 for that to stop to me.

I have them, but I cant touch that price in the $250 range. And Wow TonyGotSkilz, you got it cheaper than I get them for.

Best I can do on one would be $285.
