T500 in a rig? Or just the T500 + the Pro pedals?
Wheel and pedals and the homemade rig. I can’t find it but it was on Facebook Saskatoon Buy and Sell I believe.
Here’s the screen shot of it that my wife sent me. She found it.

There's this which isn't used, has a warranty and you can option for an extended warranty(usually a waste of money, but better to be safe on something like this IMO). Not to mention it's only $20CAD more than the T300GT which comes with a rubber wheel rim. The Ferrari rim alone is $220CAD on best buys website.

But the regular pedals, not the Pro's....and no rig, although not sure that particular homemade rig is worth a whole lot?

It's not worth whatever shipping costs would be if he doesn't live within driving distance.

Also, that's almost $300 CAD less. I don't know that the pros are different enough to warrant the cost when it's just a different frame that allows you to flip the pedals, especially when he could just flip the T3PAs on a rig if he made one.

I took part in the TT and my name appeared online in the results. (I had already sent friend request to the PSN name given in the signup). So what could be the issue. @SAMHAIN85
 
I also set a time, friended the snail account and I don't see my name on the board. My time would have been right around racingchamp30's time.

Totally agree with you on shipping, which is why I asked where he was located, and pointed out where these were.
As for the pedals themselves, they feel quite different from the regular T3PA’s imo, but I don’t think they’re real expensive, like $200cdn, and like I said I got mine for free through a safety bonus program, or I wouldn’t have upgraded, so I can’t say if it’s worth it or not.

I was under the impression the mechanical parts of the pedal set were the same, I haven't got to use them myself. I'm sure the inputs feel pretty different, it's like driving a German car with a floor mounted accelerator pedal then switching to a American or Japanese car with a top mounted pedal.

I just looked on bestbuy.ca and you're right they're $200 new, and the T3PA are $125. In theory he could sell the T3PA for $100 and still be up $200 total AND have a warranty if he really wants the pros.

There's also always the G29 which is even cheaper. https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/produc...playstation-pc-dark-941-000110/10383067.aspx?
With a $400CAD buy-in price he could get it and a pre-fabbed rig too for less than that T500, or get a G29 and wheel stand and spend less than the wheel I recommended. It just all depends on what is most important to him for his setup.
