That does sound a bit sloppy. I guess I could stretch my budget if wired cadence sensors are really all that messy.

I don't think I need an Edge at the moment. I think that a sub $100 computer would suit me nicely.
No, you can get a new 705 for under 400, and a 305 for under 200

I've only been burned once, and that was ebay many years ago, and I should have seen it. I have found most of my ebay dealings to be as good or better than some online retailers.
