I have both models and like the OG much better. If i was you i would hold out for the gray one. Its tougher and if you already have a tube then u have the pump and fins already anyways. I got both of mine on ebay from the same guy for less than $70 on a NR auction. They can be had for under $100 pretty regularly. You just have to put in the time, and be patient. He ships them in the original box though, so its not very stealth when it shows up at the house . And the boxes sometimes get beat up pretty good, but they are NEW.

Hey that's good to know. I like to look for deals on tubes and at some point will be looking to get a third tube for the fleet. I hear a lot of good about this one and even though I can't buy it now I know some of the other guys are looking for them sometimes so I'll give a heads up here. It's encouraging to hear you have experience with the seller. I am watching 2 or 3 other ones he has. My Navigator came from ebay. So far so good.
