GC2 + FR1 Purchase Decision

[Peg Leg Whaler]

I'm being indecisive right now. Any input would be appreciated.

I can buy a new GC2 with FR1 for $7000

Also have option to by a certified pre-owned GC2 + FR1 for $6400

I'm not poor, but certainly not rich. Either one of these is a huge purchase for me. Any reason I should spend the extra $600 for the New GC2? Is this a bad deal?

Personally, I would buy off a member here , they usually pop up around $4k-$4.5k depending on serial number and get fsx2018.
If your worried about hardware failure you can then register it with foresight for cover.

i have had FR1, ok as a starter, but fsx2018 is pretty awesome for what we use it for

Good luck.

Yeah you are right I just need to be patient. Can you buy FSX 2018 used?

[kalcormier]

Yes you can

[vrpunk]

I did as well.....patience though hehe.

for $600 buy new. Like others said they pop up for a lot less than $6400.

How can you be getting a new one with fr1. New comes from foresight with fsx?

[Peg Leg Whaler]

Foresight rep threw out prices with fr1 or fsx for both cpo and new. Fr1 had 1 course, range and skills challenge

[Peg Leg Whaler]

Initially they offered Fr1 for $1350 but we got down to $1000

FR1 is like black and white TVs. So old looking.

Well as luck would have it i, stumbled across a member here and bought a gc2 and fr1 with 5 courses. Cant wait. Looking at mats and net now
