Hello fellow travel enthusiasts. I found this site after doing some heavy research on radar detectors. at this moment i offered someone on craigslist 225 for a V1 with version 1.7 hardware.
hopefully this goes well...

I don't think that's a good deal. That's pretty old. The odds are probably around 80% that it won't arrive in working condition. This happens all the time. Then, it'll cost $45 + shipping just to get it working, or $139 + shipping to get it upgraded to the latest version. At that point, you might as well just buy a new one for $400.
really? darn!!!! so if the guy replies with a "yes, lets meet up"...would there be any way for me to verify that it works good?
v 1.7? I think I would pass.
so i guess I'll hold out for a 1.8...they go for about 300 on CL. we shall see...thanks for the help guys, that could have been a huge mistake!
That's also risky. Again, a very high percentage of V1s found on Ebay and Craig's List show up in non-working condition. matyj, a forum member here, bought two 1.8 V1s off of Ebay and neither worked when he got them. There are countless stories like this around here. The odds of getting a 100% functional V1 off of Ebay or Craig's List is about 50%.
For a tab bit cheaper, you can get a 30-day turn in from VR if the big 4-0-0 is too much.
$360 for a refurb, I think.
