Bushaman Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 Should I buy it? Using an X-45 Currently. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] i5 2500k (OC 4.6 Liquid) / AsRock Z77Extreme / Gigabyte GTX 670 2GB OC / 16GB RAM / 250GB Crucial SSD / Win7 x64 / TrackIR 4 Pro (Wireless Mod) / Saitek X-45
Witchking Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 I would be careful about ebay. You never know about the operation of the buttons/stick etc. Personally, I bought my warthog at 400$ before taxes. At 360$, you might as well look out for a deal and buy it brand new with the 2yr support from thrustmaster. PS: I upgraded from a x-45 too....a night and day difference.

streakeagle Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 I got mine new for $350 when Fry's had a sale back in September 2011. I haven't had any problems. Works great! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Witchking Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 yeah...apparently in canada Tigerdirect had a sale at 399$ or 350$ as well... I missed out on that one....but i am still happy with the deal I got. I did a price match and got the whole thing at 400$ taxes incl which was pretty sweet. Either way...personal opinion...unless it is sold by someone locally and u can personally see it and test it, avoid buying 400$ complicated joystick with multiple possible components that could fail/be offset/mechanical issues on ebay. Thats just my 2 cents.

kevdawg66 Posted December 23, 2012 Posted December 23, 2012 On amazon the prices jump a lot it got as low as $350 so i would wait for a good opportunity because they can go as high as $500.
