sounds like they've raised prices, only a couple months ago its was about $450 or so I think, and $325 for a refurb.

because happs is a retailer, and so marks up accordingly.  Buying direct from the source (WG or better yet american gaming inc) will be cheaper.

plus, happs would sell you a Dollar for $1.50 anyways  :P
