I bought my grey import SB-800 in March last year (while the dollar was getting strong) for $450, and remember selling them (AU stock) in the region of $700...but it was a long time ago and could not be certain about that 2nd price...how much have you seen this one for??

I'd say thats really steep, and 700 would be about sb900 pricings? ...sb800 used should be MUCH cheaper.

I see in the bargan section on this site sb800 $491....I'm not sure if this is the current price or from last year when the $ was strong...

Gary can confirm this price
