for $200 or even @250, I think thats a good deal. Better than anything new in that price range.

It sound like you're in the UK? If so Ł200-Ł250 for a used one is too much.

Definitely wait a couple of weeks and get a 660-something. You won't regret it.

You can get a brand new GTX 580 for around Ł230-Ł280 with a full warranty, so yes, it's priced too high.
