Default psr800 price

I was nosing around and I see that AES has a "open box" special for $369 and their "new"price on the psr800 is $419 which is lower than even amazon.com

Yep, bought ham gear from them before!
as popular as the psr800 is I thought this was a deal to be had.

Bump!

73 & Happy Holidays,

Yeah I saw that one too, but $369 for a brand new psr800 as a open box special is pretty noteworthy, but any price under 4 bills is great, right?

Default PSR-800 From AES

I'm sitting here listening to the last open box PSR-800 AES- Milwaukee had on the shelf. There are two price stickers on the box. The top one at 369 and another underneath it for 399. Both say it's an open box. I couldn't tell the box had been opened. I consider open box items as just having some additional testing.

Sweet find, thanks for sharing. I plan on picking one up once they open back up after new years since Santa didn't put one under the tree and I've been looking for a while.

A happy New year to you all as well.

On their site it said Milwaukee had 2, but when I called they said they didn't have any but Cleveland had 1. Called Cleveland and they said they had one but it didn't have a cable, but since it's a standard USB I said no problem and grabbed it. Some of the other shops might have them too if you call. Good luck and happy New year!

Great shop to work with too.

Yeah when I called the sales rep I spoke with in Cleveland told me it was 379 despite the website listing it for 369, but he sold it to me for 369 anyways given it was missing the USB cable.

Default psr500 price on scannermaster

I noticed today the PSR-500 is 499.95. The PSR-800 is cheaper than that. Anyone notice it?

The cheapest available price I found for the psr800 is $392 but scannermaster is out of line on their prices lately!

i notice that too. however, if you notice, everything gre is out of stock. the psr-800 is in stock, at the insane price of $500.00. but remember, if you find a cheaper price, they will price match it.

The issues with the 800's sd card system and menu need to be resolved before I'll order one.

i know i'm not a scanner idiot but, i am a computer idiot. the sd card line of scanner's just doesn't do it for me. i have the psr-700. while not too bad, it isn't my go to scanner. the other thing is,i know some frequencies that i just would not submit to the database. while this may sound self serving, i just feel that i have a moral/ethical obligation to remain mum about them. i guess i run the risk of "whats the frequency? kenneth" syndrome. the line of scanners just doesn't lend itself to on the fly monitoring.

Just got the call from Ham City, "they're back ordered 3-5 months"! I guess I'll have to find another vendor, AES confirmed they're in stock.
