When this goes off and you look up and see the cop looking through his laser gun at you, you'll have to pay the ticket AND $300 for this.

Lol, are you saying this about this specific detector or all radar detector in general.

From what I've read, best you can do is have a Detector, Jamar, and use Waze... to cover you 100%

One of those sellers is banned from SD, so glad you linked to the general search page.

Of course, there is no such thing as 100% able to speed at all without potentially getting a ticket. But your advice is correct to give you very good odds. You left out eyeballs and brains (situational awareness and common sense).

Why was seller banned? No commission to SD?

They are not saying why, but that is my guess as well.

Whatever the case, I have never had issues as a purchaser from them. Made several purchases and they always ship fast and as advertised.

The merchant is Electronic Express; they were banned from Slickdeals on 8/7/2019. They may have been banned for various different reasons, with the ultimate decision being made privately by our business office. While I am unaware of the reason(s) why Electronic Express was banned, I can tell you that, in general, most merchants get banned because they use Slickdeals to advertise and/or bolster their own products -- something expressly forbidden by our rules and Terms of Service.

It's a shame, I believe seller had lowest price for Uniden R7 before it was deleted by sd moderator.
