Sound like you have an opportunity to make a little extra swag on eBay then ;)

I bet you could pull in $750 for each one with a "Buy it Now!" option.

$300 isnt bad for an evenings work ;)

if they sell for $750 each your lucky if you clear $50 total.

There WILL be people willing to throw 750$ down to get their Thrustmaster on! haha trust me there are impatient people out there to the point where they will spend extra money to get their hands on something a million other people want right then and there! :dunce:

Well based on the latest Paypal and eBay charges you will net $28 each, so you are leaving $6 on the table ;)

whoa! thanks man!

You know what's funny? I went ahead and ordered the GT2 this morning coz I read from somewhere that we won't be getting this till May... Now, how do I cancel my order with Fanatec? :crazy:

Btw there were only 10 available.. now 9.. :D
 
i'm actually kinda surprised at the amount of ppl that is willing to pay the price for this wheel. Personally for that amount of money I think I would rather get the Porsche by Fanatec with Club Sport pedals.

In fact it's exactly same price (except that you haven't plastic shifter on T500 RS):
T500 RS = 500€
FANATEC GT2 = 500€
(GT2 250€ + ClubSport 200€ + Plastic Shifter 50€ = 500€)

Interesting... thx for the info. Now I Really want to see if I can test out the T500 somehow. Being the official wheel and all :)

As good of an idea as that is, I just don't feel good being the one to do it. I always hope that the person who buys an item like that buys it to enjoy it, not just to profit off of the desperation of his fellow hobbyists. That said, I do like money..! 💡

That's the spirit!

Its a mugs game anyway, as soon as you put your cash down for the wheels, you run the risk of stock becoming widely available, and then having to get rid of them at a loss.
 
I bought two ....

First from : gamegear.be in Belgium at Feb 4th
Second from : playerone.be in Belgium at Feb 12th
Paid : 499,99 Euro each

Both of these sellers had only one T500RS in their stocks till I buy from them :)

@Kikie

I know the owner of simW , because the person who produces all the simulators for him is my friend from Istanbul.

The owner is Frank and he told me he didn`t have any,,,, that`s why I had to goto Belgium twice to pickup from different locations. Frank told me he would have his Thrustmasters by end February. If he has them in stock now , it must be that he just received them , Because he didn`t have them at Feb 4th and Feb 12 when I bought my T500RS`s
