I bought one on Ebay about 5 weeks ago for a total price of $304. So far it has worked without any problems. I'm still on my first set of batteries and it has been in the field for 38 days now with over 500 pictures taken. The only thing that bothers me is that the wind has been real gusty here lately and I've gotten a lot of false triggers from branches swaying around, go figure[
].
The only thing about the Cuddeback that bothers me is that it's like strapping $300 to the tree everytime I leave it. So far no one has trashed it.
