I wouldn't but them from ebay but the one you found at best buy sounds like a great deal. I would just make them bench test it and do a full operations test on it. Worst case scenerio is Pioneer has a flat $200 repair rate. You would be getting the radio for just over $400

I trust ebay honestly. I found a factory manufactured one for 289. Which I had to buy, the one at best buy sold, not to mention it was used.

like, if I play something in the M's. i want ot exit to the M's. not go all the way back to A!

i have 500 plus artists! i need to look at the road!
You want the best iPod interface, go Alpine. To go through a listing whether it's artist, album, whatever.....the preset buttons go to a certain letter in the alphabet. You can skip around the alphabet that way. For example, I think the Preset 5 takes you to the T's. I think it's pretty intuitive. The Eclipse is also a good unit. Good luck in your choice.

the alpine looks SWEET! but I most likely will be buying the Pioneer 4100 thing. as I am a cheap bastard, it looks to do all i want. and it has a USB.

but hey, if I get less cheap... that alpine is tasty!

I'm taking out my Pioneer 4100 today for the F90BT
I thought about getting the F910 but they are pretty much the same radio except for some features here and there

It does everything that I need it to and more. I have no complaints about it. Just stay up to date on all of the updates for it and you'll have no problems. I also have the steering wheel control adapter for it and that makes it nice also.

Yeah the only thing that is kinda annoying is the load time on start up. However if you turn off the V.R. dictionary it loads a lot faster
