    after a long month and half of searching the web for a good deal on a T9300 i finally pulled the trigger today.

    bought one used from a ebay seller with a 100% feedback (checked the feedback and he sold couple of t9300,t9500,some T7's). bought it for 250 and used the microsoft cashback for 25% which will give me back about 60$. :D
    cant wait for it to get here and try it out!

    Too bad you didn't offer to refer a friend for a small discount on your item.

    that is a very good deal, I got a retail X7800, while runs hotter and consumes more power, is pretty much on par with the t9300, for 308 CAD.

    Congrats, that sounds like an awesome deal. I'm waiting for the retail price to get around there before I buy. I just got my 6860, so I'm making myself wait at least 6 months before I upgrade... :(
