That is a good deal on a great radar detector. I have the R1 (same as this without gps) and I love it. It'll take you some time to set it up how you want it but once you get there it's great.
you can usually find the R1 (lower than this one) for around $200
you can usually find the R7 (better than this one) for $350
edit: corrected the R7 to $350. when I just did a search here I found that they used to come down to $350 and not $300.

Please point me to an R7 for $300. It's been $499 for the last 6+ months with almost no sales.

We should start seeing more deals like this, now that the newer R4 is out and the r3 gets discounted and phased out. FYI from initial reviews, the R4 has a new chipset and has even better (forward) range than the R7. I have lived with my dfr8 for quite some time now and went ahead and pulled the trigger on the r3 because I am stoked about finally having GPS lockout and for the price of the R3, I will be more than satisfied for another few years.

You can dream….meanwhile the one I purchased for $475 has saved me countless times. To me, it's worth every penny.
Don't doubt it. I actually bought an R3 a few months ago due to the R7 not coming down in price and having never having had arrows was willing to live without them at that price.

I'm listing deal prices from before the chip shortage for people who are not following the prices for those items to know what is a deal. Those deal prices are in line with the current deal in the OP (since you haven't been able to find the R3 for this price lately either) so you can assume that the other ones are hopefully coming down soon.
"Usually find" doesn't mean available right now.

I was implying usually find would mean in the recent weeks ro even months. The chip shortage isn't letting up yet and the R3 sale is more likely due to the R4 release than a production upturn. R8 is coming out later this year so the R7 may see the same trend but it's not been usually available for less than $499 for quite a while.

$300 from Amz
So are we comparing used vs new when you say 3rd party?
