Yeah I figured. I was looking at some of nate the greats reviews, and i was not impressed. but what do you think about the price of the V3? I'm not sure how much money transfer costs, but i did look at the Jinke website and they wanted i think $50 just for shipping. Is the price around the same as if you would purchase from Jinke?
thanks for all the insight.

I just got an email from him and he has said he cannot get the V9, but he could get the StarEbook.

The StarEbook is for all intents & purposes obsolete. Granted the hardware itself (Netronix) is still being sold under different labels, but the brand is pretty much dead & I wouldn't expect support for it TBH.

Given that Jinke's selling the V3 for $350 ($300+$50) versus this seller's $395(?) ($365 + $35), I don't see why you're having difficulty deciding between buying from a dodgy ebay seller vs. buying direct from the manufacturer?

How exactly did you come to think that I actually want to buy either of these ?
I'm just posting the info for people to know and express there thoughts on it.
I've already bought a 505 and a Kindle, I dont need either.
And another thing you should think about is the fact that Jinke requires you to pay via SWIFT or Bank Transfer. Swift last I checked cost around $30, and Bank Transfer should cost around the same, making the Price from the guy on ebay near the same as the manufacturer.
By the way is Hanlin's products guaranteed?
