where to purchase highend radar detector at discount?

ssmoked

I am in the market to purchase a passport 9500ix, passport redline or valentine v1. Just wondering if anyone knows which retailer would sell them at a slight discount, given they are expensive.

Any other referrals that I might of overlooked but should consider?

I am located in Fl so any online stores physically located in Fl would add sales tax.

Thanks!!

eBay, get the 9500iX ONLY, $400~ is what you should pay

Amazon had it once for $405

You probably wont find an Escort 9500ix under 400 new.

I might as well get it new for peace of mind.

looked everywhere and the standard 'discounted' price across all sites are $450. Is there something new coming out to replace this model? The discounted price is offered on the Escort site.

I have a V1 and love it. Saved my @#$ many times.

The best price for the V1 is on their website. Valentine One radar and laser detectors

You can get one for $399.

A great radar detector.

No, not at all. You can have the choice to mount to your windshield while utilizing the 12v socket on passenger side, which BTW is my setup. There is a limited amount of cord due to short distance and design of the cord.

You could always hard wire the unit which comes with the necessary hardware.

Check out their website. It is all there. They also have options to hide the unit from sight for discreet monitoring.

Again, the V1 is one awesome detector. Nothing against the Passport unit.....it's just personal preference.

I've had great luck with the Beltronics units.

wow! I didn't know radars can be that $$! I love my Valentine 1 that I got for $325 used. I wonder how good the escort is.

The 9500ci is a jammer system

I recently upgraded from a Beltronics RX65 Pro to a Escort 9500ix recently. Pull the trigger on the Escort and don't look back. The detector is REALLY good.

I recently took a trip, to Silverlake in Mears MI, which involved some highway driving for some extended of time. I picked up a K band signal from a cop's car. A chirp from the radar. I checked my speed back to 70mph from 75mph. The signal progressively got stronger. After about 5min, not exaggerating, I finally see a State Trooper's vehicle in the median clocking cars. How many miles away did the radar pick up the signal?

(scratching head... Thinking....Pulls out paper.... realize I have my computer in front of me with a calculator.... 86 that... I have Google....forget Google that's played out... Enter my search into Wolframalpha.com )

The total distance is ... 5.833mi







Sorry, I'm tired.... I've been studying for certification...
