MagSeven 40 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I feel your pain. Exactly the same here, my Hero 2 is barely out the box! Link to post Share on other sites
rider69 18 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Before you sell your Hero2 make sure that you dont have to upgrade your pc for the Hero3. My pc would struggle with that quaility at the moment. PS how much for your hero 2? Link to post Share on other sites

yamabushi 3 Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 And to make things worse, Gopro just dropped the prices on the Hero2. Here in Japan it used to be 28,200 yen, now they are 23,200. Rider, I was looking for the button to send you a PM in case you were interested but could not find it. We don't have PMs anymore?

rider69 18 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I dont know about the pms sorry. Just wondering what you wanted for it if the price jumped out as real good I would consider it. I dont think my pc can handle the hero 3 video size Link to post Share on other sites

Anybody who may know the answer Rider, the new price in Japan is 23,200 yen. I would be happy to par with it for 19,200, shipping included via black cat. If you care for it (or anybody else for that matter) let me know. Link to post Share on other sites

surfarthur 22 Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Well, I just ordered the black edition. Just need that more powerful computer to be able to make the most of the footage. Still trying to decide if I should order the wifi backpack for my original gopro, or flick it off to one of my mates. Link to post Share on other sites
