Brand new, not a refurb - and ultra portable. It's not going to set any land speed scooter records, but under $200 for a new Segway that is truly portable and can hold riders up to 220 lbs, seems like a deal to me. Believe it or not, but Segway.com is actually still selling this scooter

Crazy…
Regardless, $180 for brand new is the best price I've ever seen on this. And if you don't want to TU the deal for whatever reason, that's more than fine... but I don't get the TD's. It's still the best price ever, and Segway is a good scooter brand... so all of the TD's just seem ridiculous.
I bought this from Woot last year, same condition, bit more expensive. This was my dream scooter since it fit everything I was looking for, came with a stand, was easy to fold down for storage etc.
It never turned on.
Looked into it a bit further - essentially these models if they sit for too long (like I think these ones have) their battery will not kick up and you'll have to return it.

The scooter itself is very good looking - friends frequently commented on how futuristic it looked, "a tesla scooter" kind of vibe. It also folds down well which makes it easier to carry.
Other than that, I have nothing good to say. The "charging dock" they give you is literally made of styrofoam, it's basically just the insert in the box to keep the unit from being damaged during shipping. The scooter itself sits way too low to the ground because of the small wheels, so you end up feeling every single pothole/crack/etc. and you really need to avoid the deep ones because it will knock you off balance and damage the scooter. You will probably never hit the top speed it mentions if you are >150lbs.
I ended up returning mine after a few weeks and getting a crappy $200 scooter from Hover-1 - even that worked much better and felt more sturdy on the road. At $500, I would never recommend this. At $180, it is more interesting - maybe give it a shot if it will be used by someone pretty light and in an area with good roads/sidewalks so you don't have the pothole issue.

I feel like I'm being asked to defend $800. No, I'd never pay $800 for this, but Segway is selling it on their website for $800. Do you really believe Segway hasn't sold ANY of these scooters to some sucker for $800? I bet they sold more than a few for $800. So, if this is a deal, then just say it's a deal. If you hate Segway or you hate me, then fine, but it's still a deal. I feel like I'm being accused of making up a fake deal... sheesh.
