So I guess they still haven't sold it. This was listed at Sun-n-Fun for $29,995 on a board in Wentworth's booth... I thought it was a good deal...

A bit of Due Diligence is needed here. The system as pictured can’t (read can NOT) be made into a G900X system since the GIA-63 boxes are Non-WAAS. You’re stuck with a system that you can’t load any G900X software on and they are old non WAAS boxes. No SVT terrain, etc.. They are great G-1000 components (for older installations or in Non-WAAS installs), but not a great solution for a G900X… If they were a steal, I’d have bought the same boxes at the same auction they did, as I have a pretty good idea of what stuff is worth.
As always, buyer beware and do your homework before buying 2nd hand stuff without knowing EXACTLY what you’re getting and exactly what you can do with it.
My 2 cents as usual. Not trying to flame anyone, just trying to make sure nobody gets something they didn’t bargain for.
Cheers,
Stein

Stein;
You and I spoke yesterday about our similar financial crunch, many may have forgotten what you did for your customers with those Cheltons when that company left everyone hanging a couple of years ago. It pays to remember you took the hit for them and made sure they were taken care of even if it meant delaying your progress on the RV-6 just as you are doing with this last post. I enjoyed our conversation and your insight, truly you are among the few that provide an excellent customer support experience and anyone who thinks a word of advice from you is flaming will eventually find their decision may leave them going down in flames.
Thank you!
Pascal
